RonJax2: I am going to keep the ATFn nomenclature, as the numeric does indicate ranking and rating. ATF1 is local and I have been seeing her for almost nine years now. Best puta in la camma that I have ever had. ATF2 is from Central Mexico and comes to TJ for a few weeks every few months to make bank, so I have to time my visits if I want to see her. If she were local and available anytime, she could be ATF1. ATF3 is not local either and is in TJ only when she needs money. And she is new to the roster, so her status could change. Planning to visit her at her home in March. So it typically works out that ATF1 is always available and will quite work, even on weekends, to be with me TLN/OTC. ATF2 prefers that we TLN/OTC on her days off, but will sacrifice a work day to be with me. ATF3 is always available OTC after her shift and on days off. So my pattern is 1-2 nights with ATF1 every visit and 1-2 nights with another ATF. And at least one day visiting fellow mongers and looking for ATF4. FYI, regarding the drugs. I have little problem with people who partake, but I am too paranoid to have them near me in Mexico. And in the USA, a bust would probably invalidate my GE card, which has spoiled me terribly. Just today, ATF1 sent me a note indicating that she has quit all drugs. (She was a lightweight to begin with.) Again, I have no issues with those who use them recreationally, but ATF1 suffers from clinical depression and really needs to keep straight.

Crossed during the Turnip administration. Crossed during Covid. Even if the border is “closed,” American citizens cannot be denied return entry into the United States.

Stayed at Rosarito Beach hotel last month. Pool is out of commission, but the outdoor hot tub is great and the cold pool is exactly that, cold. My chica did dive into the cold pool, but she is a wild one. She didn’t last 10 seconds. The room has been updated since we stayed there seven years ago. Very comfortable mini suite. Hotel restaurant is okay. Better restaurants in town, a short walk away. Easy access to the beach as well. Uber is available. We took a taxi to Crazy Girls for 80 pesos. The clubs were weak on a Thursday night. Weekends are likely better. Overall, the city is fairly safe, even late at night. Was in Ensalada last year with the same chica. A little further, but a much better experience overall. Paris by Night was a fun club and the town itself offers more things to explore. Very safe city.

Enjoyed reading your review. For me, HK is just too busy at night. Day shift can be good, but there are a few chica’s in HK who know me, which means they think they own me.

I have had a little bit of luck here, but probably the lowest success rate of all of the Zona clubs. Thanks for the review.

Epic novel. Read it all in one sitting. Great entertainment. Loved the English/Spanish lineup. Encourages me to put more effort into my own Spanish language training. Loved the detail. Takes me four nights to accomplish what you do in one night. Last month: ATF2 ($300/night) Fluent English. Whip smart. Conversations range from Cartels to politics (both countries) to zoo visits. ATF3 ($200-$300/night two nights) MILF. No English. Great/mellow person to hang with. Sleeps late, so TLNs start at around 6:00 pm and go to noon or beyond. Tried an earbud translator called TimeKettle that is supposed to translate in real time. Don't bother. Not bad when there is an Internet connection, but the off-line translation is weak or fails. Also, it will not translate words like fuck and blowjob. ATF 1 ($400/night two nights) Her status night be slipping. Turns out that she has a boyfriend that she denied in previous conversations. Starting to get into vaping and drugs. Eight years with her, but it might be time to cut her loose. Previously, no drugs, no vaping, no alcohol, and no boyfriend. Wonderful person to be with, but I am afraid the drugs and the abusive boyfriend are going to take her downhill fast. One night in Tijuana and one in Rosarito. Rosarito was so weak that ATF1 wanted to go back to TJ to party, but the hotel (Rosarito Beach) has a nice outdoor hot tub and good restaurants. Didn't want to spend almost an hour each way in the Uber.

Taxis and Uber is cheap enough that unless you are a frequent driver into Mexico, bringing your car in is not worth it. Plus the roads are so bad that I wouldn't want to beat it up there. And rental cars are available on the Mexican side if you really want to drive in Mexico.

ilbbaicnl, she says it is because she can work within their system, mostly by leveraging the corruption to her advantage. Example, AB was requiring 15 fichas for every arriba. She does enough arribas to make that a crazy number for her to achieve. Says, usually a $20+ bribe to the manager gets the requirement waived.

ATF1 says she was offered shifts at HK and turned them down, because AB is supposed to open Thursday according to some posting she found. (I don't think she should rely on anything she sees on the internet, but she was happiest when working at AB). She still has costumes locked up in there since the raid.

Local Hick, it isn't $60/dance; it is $40 to the house and $60 to the girl EACH DANCE. A few years ago there was a HOT Brazilian there that put some samba in her stage act. Had to have her at any price. She asked her tip to be $40 and said I could have more dances without paying the house, just her tips if I didn't tell anybody. Did three dances with her total (and she was very liberal two ways, but that VIP area affords almost no privacy). I don't have enough disposable income to do that very often, so no private dances. Unfortunately, there are no better alternatives unless you are willing to drive a few hours. Sometimes I will go and watch the stage shows, killing time until the commute traffic lets up. However, the girls on stage come across as being disappointed and labeling you as cheap if you are not tipping $5/song.

Had to stop going here. Too much for too little. Appreciate the review.

The VIP VIP rooms are in the VIP room. Yeah I know. There is a VIP area behind a glass wall. Inside that area are some private VIP rooms. However, the girls will go to the hotel next door and I recommend that for a quiter experience. Also, you are asked to buy a bucket of fichas for the VIP room for 30 minutes use...and the meseros/meseras are clock watchers, anxious to sell you another bucket at the end of the 30 minutes. OTOH, the hotel is $20 and with a small tip, they tend to forget about the time. La Gloria has become one of my favorite hunting grounds for the same reason, MOST of the girls have a great attitude and provide excellent service. Good review. Make sure that you update us on your Friday experience.

"Question, I thought I read that La Carreta girls cannot go into Cascadas or Rico, do you know if that is true? " They can go, but the factor is when. I wanted to take a LC girl out of the bar during her shift. She quoted the bar fine as $200. "Better to give me the $200 than the bar." I agreed. On her day off, she spent the night with me in a downtown hotel for $200. To my knowledge, so far, Cascadas and Rizo do not charge bar fines if the girl is NOT from HK or BT. There have been rumors of that changing, but it has yet to be confirmed.

Something to be careful of that is not clear, if you see an HK or BT girl off shift in Cascadas or Rizo, they want their cut. Either a bucket/hour or $300 for the night. An OTC is best truly OTC (outside the club). Book a downtown hotel, so you won't be bothered. Most are about the same cost as the hourly bucket. Great write up. Good job.

Note that much of this is the pressure of the holidays. Sounds crazy, I know, but it is true. After the holidays it still goes on, but is vastly reduced. What I didn't say is that I had $300 in a hidden pocket that they missed. Also, my (fake) wallet was buttoned in and they didn't bother taking it out. I am not afraid to walk anywhere in the Zona or downtown and often I am alone. Use common sense. Don't get drunk, and 95 percent of the time you will be fine...I hope.

RonJax, one thing at a time: "Where do you stay in Rosarito PT? Any beach hotels to recommend?" I am researching now. ATF1 wants to take me to a new (to us) club there that is open only Th-Su next Thursday. I will let you know. "If you had to force rank the caliber of talent of all the Zona clubs, how would it go?" Purely on looks of the putas: 1. HK 2. CC 3. BT 4. D&G (depending on wind direction) 5. Golden Palace 6. La Carreta 7. La Gloria 8. Play Boy On putas that are fun to be with: 1. CC (I have one ATF there and have met some serious hotties with great attitudes.) 2. BT (I have two ATFs there and have met some serious hotties with great attitudes. It isn't #1, because it still has the HK stench.) 3. Golden Palace (There is usually only one or two that are 7up, but there is also so little competition, you can get the best girls in the clubs. This goes for the next two on this list. 4. La Carreta 5. La Gloria 6. D&G (Spend too much time on their phones. Many are over the weight limit in a modern elevator.) 7. HK (Too crowded. Too many sharks. Too many GPs. Too much sausage.) 8. Play Boy (Coke whores looking to rip off the gringos. Used to have some fun girls, but now it seems that the only thing that these girls think about is that next bump...and not ones from the mongers.) Dubai is decent, as it is an independent operation. Girls who don't want to be in the Zona usually end up there. However, as a warning, some of the girls who are troublemakers end up here too. I think I posted a review on this club. Deja Vu is more expensive and caters to the inactive-brained 20-30 club. Usually near empty weekdays. The girls are 6-8 and put on a good show. Been there a few times, but I get over, because a former popular mesero there typically hangs out with me there. He is good buddies with everyone and gets me the best girls and multiple discounts. If I am there alone, even on weekends the place doesn't do so well.

mmvucd: My own experience is that a few weeks ago I got robbed by the local police for the first time in eight years of going to the Zona on a regular basis. Four cops in a pickup stopped me at about 2:00 pm while I was walking to Tropical Bar. Seemed friendly enough. Then they went through my pockets. In my front left, I had about $200, my spend for the afternoon. I had about 1000 pesos in my right pocket. They actually took the dollars and moved the pesos from my right pocket to my left pocket. Each had a money clip, which they left behind. Would almost be funny, except for the expense. I have been warned many times about the bandits with badges and have been alert. However, how do you say no to uniformed, heavily armed men?

Mileage varies of course, but some of the girls here are “liberal.”

Sorry that your experience wasn’t the best. However, I have found this to be one of the higher mileage clubs in Phoenix. Not so much on the floor, but in the “private area“ I have received excellent mileage. Funny story, I happen to have a couple of condoms on me that I had forgotten about when the guy at the front door frisked me. Surprised he found them, he took them from me. The look on his face indicated it was far from the first time. And the idea that he would take my protection indicates the management isn’t very health conscious.

Note that many Mexicans do Xmas shopping in the USA. Border crossings can have very long lines.

$140 a dance in an open room is why I don’t visit any more. Best in SJ, but SJ is a desert.

No valué added.

Good,complete review.

$100 is a good price these days. I would not have negotiated either.

Gammanu95 likely you are right, selective enforcement maybe driven by a competitor. A mesero who has some inside information said another charge included money laundering because authorities found a lot of unaccounted for cash.
