Hotel Cascadas at Club Hong Kong (Tijuana) - Your Hotel Room Inside the Strip Club!
First, I know Hotel Cascadas is not actually IN the Club Hong Kong strip club (Tijuana). But it's on top of it, and owned and operated by them. Secondly, there are lots of reviews of Club Hong Kong, and I didn't think TUSCL really needed another review of the club itself. What's not on TUSCL is much information about the Hotel. If you are staying in TJ for more than a couple of hours, getting a room at Hotel Cascadas is super convenient, and it pays for itself!
GET A ROOM!
As described in many reviews, when you visit Hong Kong, you can tip girls on stage and get lap dances ($20 for like 5 minutes!), but most of the girls will want you to go upstairs ("arriba") to one of the rooms where they will have sex with you for $80 to $100 for 30 minutes (or $60 if you are a shrewd negotiator and she is desperate). The room will cost $15 or so for the half hour, plus $1 for a condom. But if you have your own room, you only pay for the condom, and the girl can stay as longer, sometimes more than an hour, providing you work that out with her.
If you reserve your room online (http://goo.gl/W8r2e3), it can be $5 to $10 less per night than just walking up. I was there in June for 4 nights, Monday through Thursday, and paid just $50 per night. By the time I took the 3rd girl up for sex, having a place to sleep it off only cost me $5!
ROOM AMENITIES
If you're staying overnight, they like to put you in a room on the 6th floor. The rooms are decently appointed and clean. The mattresses are NOT plush, pillow top, hotel mattresses like you would find at a 2-to-3-star $100/night American hotel chain. But they are decent enough. There are "end tables" affixed to the wall on either side of the bed. There is a flat screen attached to the wall with 12 or 13 channels, and 3 or 4 of them are porn (which can be helpful when you're over 40 having sex with a 20-something for the 4th time that day). If you want a remote for the the TV, you can get one for a $10 deposit, which is returned when you check out. Each room has a safe as well, though getting a key also requires a $10 deposit, which is also returned to you when you check out.
CHECK YOUR ROOM
When you get to your room, check to make sure everything works before you get comfortable.
1. Check the room fan to make sure it comes on and that the motor does not sound like a jet engine (the switch is located on the wall across the room from the window). It can get pretty hot in there, and you don't want a fan that will sound like you're sleeping at the airport.
2. Be sure your window has a curtain. The lights in the hallway are on all day and all night, and your room will not get dark overnight without a curtain. Plus, it adds extra privacy in case you actually slide the window open to get better circulation.
3. Make sure the TV works. Some of the TV's have a really bad connection to the cable TV system.
If you find anything you don't like, change rooms. Yes, it's inconvenient to go to the desk and get a different key, but if you are staying for more than a couple of nights, you really want a room you can live with. They are very accommodating about letting you change rooms if you haven't messed anything up.
BED SHEETS AND TOWELS
Once you are sure you will want to stay in that room, you will probably need to remake the bed. Maybe it's just me, but I don't like having just one sheet, covered by a wool blanket, covered by a synthetic comforter. Find one of the housekeepers, or call Recepcion (01 or 02 on the phone) and ask for an additional sheet. Be ready to tip the guy a dollar. There are no fitted sheets, so I always carry some sheet straps ($5 at Walmart: http://goo.gl/Gxo2az) to make the bottom sheet stay in place.
Then I usually ask the guy who brings the sheets for a couple extra towels. The room only comes with 2 towels, and if you shower between sessions, you need more than 2. Again, he'll want a tip.
GET AN ICE CHEST
If you want a fridge in your room, you have to get a master suite at twice the price, but the Oxxo (quickie mart) on Avenida Revolucion across from the Domino's Pizza has styrofoam coolers (in Spanish - hielera or "yay-LEH-ra") for cheap (map to walk there: http://goo.gl/JNSwmo). Some of the other Oxxo's may have them as well. Fill it with ice, and put a few beverages in it. You will want to stay hydrated.
GET EAR PLUGS
Simple ear plugs are helpful when you decide to actually go to sleep. There is a crazy brass band that plays music on the street starting at about 11pm, and there are always sounds in the hallway, including housekeeping folks that don't necessarily understand that someone is trying to sleep.
WIFI - NOT REALLY
The hotel website says WiFi is available. There is, technically, a WiFi network, but it's crap. Don't count on having it. I have AT&T on my phone, and I didn't have much problem at all with data or voice service from my room, being on the 6th floor, so it doesn't bother me that WiFi just isn't there.
PLATINUM RIP OFF
Club Hong Kong offers a "platinum member card" for $50 and they promise 20% discounts on the hotel on certain nights and a free beverage and lots of other things. Unless you are going to stay in the hotel for more than 10 nights in a 4 month period, it probably is a waste of money since most of the "discounts" can be gotten for free using coupons they have available on their site. In my experience, though, the club staff don't really understand how the card or the coupons work, and you have to get a manager when you want to use them, and they are a huge hassle for very little benefit. In my opinion, don't waste your money and your time.
CONCLUSION
I like to stay at Hotel Cascadas when I go to TJ. The Hotel Ticuan, a few blocks away, is certainly a nicer hotel for only a little more money, but I love the convenience of being able to walk out to the street or into the club, and bring back a girl in just a few minutes. With a little advance preparation, it can be a comfortable place to stay, and you get your money's worth.

If I was to do TJ; I’d probably do as you and stay there for a couple of nights/days.
Questions:
--------------
+ is one allowed to take non HK girls into one’s room?
+ is one allowed to do the same in another hotel such as the other hotel you mentioned (i.e. take girls to one’s room)?
+ can one take an Adelitas girl to Cascadas or do Adelitas girls *have to* go to a particular hotel?
+ you mentioned the ceiling fan - does the hotel not have A/C?
Thanks for the write-up.
Otherwise, they don't really care if the girl is from the club, or if she is one of the many hot girls standing in the alley outside.
There is a hotel attached to Club Tropical and one attached to Adelitas. There are also several other fleabag places that charge $5 for a half hour for various girls who work the street. The club hotels are decent enough in theory, but the other places are not. And as for clubs right there attached to the strip clubs, I would only stay at Las Cascadas. The other hotels might be okay for 20 minutes, but not nice enough to actually stay there for a few days.
Hotel Nelson is a few blocks away, and they are okay with taking girls in, but it is several blocks away and you might have difficulty getting anyone but an escort to go there. I can't be sure.
Hotel Ticuan is 8 or 10 blocks away, and they are equivalent to a 3-star American hotel for abour $70 per night, and they are okay with escorts or dates as well.
All that said, Hong Kong girls will not go to the Adelita hotel, and Adelita girls will not go to the Hong Kong hotel. They will only go to the hotel attached to the club where they work.
Many of the girls in the alley have arrangements with specific "$5 per half hour" hotels and they might not jeopardize that relationship to walk down the street to a room you have at Cascadas. Some will, some won't. And to get a girl to go all the way to Nelson or Ticuan would probably involve them agreeing to meet you outside the club. I've never tried it. I always just save myself the trouble and stay at Cascadas.
The fan is not a ceiling fan. It is built into the ventilation / heating system, but there is no actual AC. The temperatures are so mild that they leave the windows at the end of the hallways are actually open to the outside, and the rooms ventilate very well. But you might need the fan to move the air around a bit, which is why you turn it on. Again, it's not a ceiling fan. It's actually in the vents. And sometimes you can get one that is way too loud.
Thanks for clarifying about the other hotels and the situation with being able to bring outside girls into the Cascadas, and for giving us all so much practical information. What it all sounds like to me is heaven on earth.
I am afraid that once I got there, I'd never want to leave. Latina GFE makes you fall in love. The last thing in this world that I would ever want is to be married again. But I think about what you are describing and I look at what pictures I can find and I know that I could do about 4 of them per day, and then I'd want to marry all of them. I would be depressed because I would know that I could not fuck enough of them per day to even keep up with the hiring rate. It is not just an economic fault line which gives rise to these border towns. It is a Mexican cultural strength. They have something which we don’t, and it is depressing to think about how much I have suffered because of this lack.

Hong Kong and Tropical look very appealing to me. If I came down there for a first time, it might be because I had nearby business in the US. So I might want to try out one of their girls for a little while ( un ratito ), and then want to walk back across the border. Could I rent a room by the hour at Cascadas? Or do would I need to use one of the others that you have mentioned?
Will the girls give out phone numbers? Do they use email? It sounds like these places have so many girls, and they are kept so busy, that you could never find the same girl a second time unless you got contact info from her.
Does the Hong Kong Bar run 24/7, so I could just keep doing one of them and then napping, and then getting up from bed and going down to the bar and finding another, around the clock?
For a second visit I would probably want to do an overnighter ( toda la noche ), with a girl I’d been with before. I guess I’d do best to meet her outside the club, and then to use some other hotel. Best would probably be a non-red light zone hotel. Would this work out? Women can be very appealing when they want to be. More than anything else, this is what strip clubs have taught me. I don’t think any of us should ever accept anything less. Will they be that good away from the strip club environment, and for an entire night?

I think it would be better if TUSCL could bump articles and discussions to the top when someone adds a comment, like other message boards do.
Hong Kong bar is 24/7, yes.
Girls at Hong Kong are as likely to give out their numbers as girls at any other strip club you have ever been to. Which means sometimes yes and sometimes no. And some girls might meet you outside the club, but I have never tried this as I just don't want to bother with it.
What a life it could be, with my motorhome plan, and then spending stints in the Cascadas until my money runs out. What a life. Toulouse Lautrec lived in a Paris brothel. He painted portraits of each of girls. And to do this he had to spend about 2 weeks sleeping with them, with each of them. In Tahiti Paul Gauguin had this homebuilt House of Love, decorated with all manner of nudie and sex pictures. Every day he would invite local girls in there, not always of legal age, and just start feeling them all over until they yielded. Even these guys would be impressed.
As far as seeing them outside the club being "trouble", yes of course it is trouble. It is that way in any country and no different whether it be with pros or with civies. Women were not created for our amusement. The difficult thing is not getting women, it’s what to do with them when you get them. About this, the MRAs, PUAs, and MGTOWs are all in agreement. This is something I hope to speak to and about how it relates to strippers in a future article.
So then, TMojo, what I think you are saying and what I see as your motive for writing the article and answering our questions is to tell us that paradise is available. It is not even very far away; if that is what we really want.

What percentage of the total would you say are actually US citizens, coming down to work in Mexico and at Mexican rates because it is just a cooler setup?
I hope they are not underage, but once before a young Mexican-American woman, now a waitress in Denny's, was telling me between the lines that before she was 18yo she used to go to Tijuana to dance in their clubs and do prostitution.

Mark94, I have never tried their spa services, but it looks like a legit massage operation. I haven't heard anything different on any of the other sites I've visited for intel.

Beyond that, it should be possible to find not more than 3 or 4 girls at any given time that have passable English. 95% just know how to say what I just quoted.
My Spanish is good enough that, if a girl is in the mood to chat, almost all of them prefer to chat with me in my mediocre Spanish rather than practice their very poor English. And since I like to get a feel for a girl's personality before committing to spending my scarce dollars on her, chatting is important to me.
SJG
Someplaces people have written that the TJ girls are selected for having reasonable English skills.

Being able to play host to the girl some in you hotel room gives her a way to go off the clock a bit and it lets you be with her for some of the in between time, while still paying her nicely for the actual action. I know this is what TMojo was getting at about the ice chest.
Also get those Walmarts straps to hold the bed sheets in place.
Dates and appointments waste the time of both parties. Better just to follow your own body cycles. Find a new one or an old one who gets to you and proceed. Then see what happens. Maybe she can stay around some, and maybe you can offer her a second session. Just do them the first time and then see what happens after.
I don't know if this Cascades Hotel will let you have many sheet changes in a day. You don't really want the next girl to have to contend with the last girl's wet spot. Maybe just put towels out and handle it that way. Do the street girls in the day time and the house dancers once it turns dark.

I've stayed there a few times last month, in a single deluxe room and a jacuzzi room.
The beds were not that comfortable and one important thing I forgot was ear plugs. The band outside and the constant flow of traffic outside the doors made for a very noisy and sleepless experience.
so here is a question, after hanging out at HK just once, and getting no real action (outside of the shaving cream bar) as a pretty damn good looking couple, i hope it was just a really busy night...it sure looked it!
the things is we KNOW that when we find the right girl 30 minutes will NOT be enough time.
Two hours of fun is a really good time for everyone, when the dancer is into it.
For an hour should we expect we would pay double for the girl? And double For The room?
Anyone know? Anyone know if it's even possible?
Anyone ever pay to go over the half hour?
Two hours might cost us a fortune!
Enquiring minds and bodies want to know, because we want to make the trek and soon!
