Beware el Primer de Mayo.
[QUOTE=Global00;2323233]I did the usual when I'm here but I tried to venture to some new spots.
I really didn't feel any danger at all.[/QUOTE]That's the thing. Like I said in the past, Primer de Mayo doesn't look that dangerous in appearance alone but it's the MOST dangerous nightlife area in Bogota. It looks safe because there are groups of people in their nightclub clothes, many of them go to the normal night clubs on the street and the other ones go to the gayclubs in which there are many (both of which (normal night clubs and gay clubs are safer inside). Do not go alone and even that isn't enough sometimes. There are groups of 3 guys or more who are walking around looking for victims to steal from and they carry knives and believe me, they aren't afraid to use it. And that fence in the middle you mentioned? That fence is new. It wasn't there 3 months ago. Want to know why they put it up? It's because so many people were getting robbed and the thieves would sprint away from people and police and run away across the street so now there is a divider so they would have to stay on the same side of the street. If you don't believe me look up that street on google maps and the fence will not be there. You also aren't even safe in the clubs. 2 weeks ago I placed 100 k cash in my pocket so that I didn't have to bring my wallet. I remember the waiter getting really close to me and asking me questions that had no point to them and when I got out of the club, I realized he somehow pickpocketed me but I had no evidence. Mongers / clients get drugged with the devil's breath drug by the waiters or the chicas when they are inside. This happened twice to my friends in the past 3 months. One of them was robbed, and beaten by the waiters in Pasarela club because he wanted to come back in the club and get it back. The other one was drugged in another chica club and only recalls being brought to a secluded room in the club with a chica and the waiter yelling at him to give him the pin number to this debit card. He recalls giving him a fake number but might have given him the real pin when he was "out of it" thanks to the drug they gave him because there was a 100 k withdrawal that day on his card. Funny thing is that he went back with other friends and is negotiating to buy his watch back from them since they said they already sold his phone. They don't admit to robbing him but they said that he was so drunk that he bought 4 bottles and was with 4 girls and he didn't have the money to pay for it so they took his things for collateral. Please. The other case was in Pasarela club and that case is still open, they deny ever taking anything and the manager refuses to show the camera footage inside to the police because there was a "passcode error". And the local police are just as corrupt because they literally get paid by the club managers / owners so that the clubs can stay open all night (6:00 am). So the police will not help you against the club thieves but will help you against the street thieves if you're a woman or old person. They don't really care enough to chase down criminals (risking their lives) so that a man can get back his phone but they would for a woman.
These clubs are very dangerous because the dosage of the drug can be deadly. In the first case, the waiter drugged my friend with the right amount since he doesn't recall anything inside the club. He only remembers being outside because of the cold wind and the pushes and punches he was receiving from the waiters. The other time, the dosage was a bit less since my other friend recalled being inside in the room being asked these questions and had the willpower to lie about the pin number after they took everything from him (cash, watch and phone). These waiters drink a lot as well and get drunk during the night so there is a chance that they might give you too much of the dosage of the drug, and THAT can literally kill you. And who will know? They can put you in the back and they control who sees the cameras.
So if you decide that you have to go to el primer de mayo then tread lightly.
Mezzanine small room and narrow bed.
[QUOTE=ShinyCrazy;2323932]"Also went to the Mezzanine.... The rooms are insanely tiny. Literally about 28" wide and 6 feet long. Trying to not fall off of the 18" wide "bed" required acrobatic maneuvering. If you are at all claustrophobic, you wouldn't be able to go here. Seriously! Smallest "rooms" I've ever seen." [/QUOTE]LOL, the beds are not for laying down upon or massage. They are just a prop for the sex. You set the girl on the table and stand on the floor and enter her that way. Also she can get on the floor and give you a BJ or hand job. They really pack the girls into the rooms too. Very cheap overhead.
