Rio de Janeiro Reports

Bubba Boy's guide has many parts that are as relevant today as in 2012, even though, a lot of specific information has been out dated.

The part of the guide that I cut and paste on the main forum about the interview process in termas for example is as relevant today as it was 8 years ago.

The other parts of that guide that I recall being on target are security and the mini relationships.

All the stuff Bubba Boy wrote was true. For example, I've had one wingman last week take a girl home from a terma and then complain that she had a big see section scar when he got her home and wasn't so psyched about that experience. Another wingman 1.5 months ago took a girl upstairs from the boate in 4 x 4 only to find she had similar issues and he had already paid for a session and he just sat there and talked to her for like 300 reais.

A close read of the guide will help to avoid some of that.

I would like ask for an opinion for what I think is a novel idea.

Go to Rio for a month. Stay in a youth hostel 12 bed dorm room for about 5 euros a night. It's a 30 minute walk from Copacabana beach.

When I need some privacy with a lady, I will use either a room in a brothel (termas, boate, privie, whatever the euphemism is) or go to an inexpensive hourly hotel for a an hour.

My reasoning is first of all, low cost. I'm retired and on a budget. The lack of comfort in the hostel doesn't bother me a bit. I did it in the DR a few years ago.

Second of all, the thought of inviting a total stranger into my airbnb apartment makes me anxious. I am not carrying around the crown jewels, however I've got a laptop, passport, medications, credit cards, cash etc. I really really don't like things magically disappearing.

One question I have: Any suggestions for hourly hotels in the Copacabana area and their prices?

You are now over 100 posts on many different forums with NO trip reports man. Get your butt out there and tell us of your experiences instead of just asking quesitons everywhere.

That guide is almost a decade old! So much has changed in that time, and with the impact of COVID it isn't over yet. The guide loses significant value each and every year that the "specifics" in it aren't updated. It's like relying on a travel guide that hasn't been updated in a decade when visiting a country for the first time. Don't do it! Yes, there are some nuggets of advice in there, but that's greatly counterbalanced by the fact that so many valuable, specific details in it are very outdated. For example, in one of your cut and pastes, you included L'uomo as a major termas in Copacabana. All of us vets know that termas has been closed for years! If you're going to tout the guide, you should be more upfront about the serious weaknesses in it too given its age, and you should at least be careful not to spread misinformation as well, such as cutting and pasting specific information that is clearly out-of-date, with no note / explanation / correction.

And when I do it, I want to get my money's worth. I'm not asking anybody to pay for my plane ticket, I'm not asking for your credit card info, but you can't spend three minutes to list a few hourly hotels?

[QUOTE=HarryDubois;2535529]I'm not asking anybody to pay for my plane ticket, I'm not asking for your credit card info, but you can't spend three minutes to list a few hourly hotels?[/QUOTE]Or you could spend three minutes to do a forum search for moteis.

[QUOTE=Sperto;2535544]Or you could spend three minutes to do a forum search for moteis.[/QUOTE]I tried that. The search options are not that great on this forum. Or perhaps this info isn't there. Try it and see what I mean. If you have some very odd ball word you want to look up, for example "Mabs", you might get good results. Love motel, hourly hotel, hourly hotel in Copacabana, etc no. So you can spend hours scrolling through pages hoping to find it if it's in here.
