I'm in Tampa fairly often on business. I've done Mons and 2001, but honestly, neither of them really whet my whistle. So on my last trip, when I got stuck staying in a shitty hotel in Ybor City, I decided to give Scarlett's a shot.

There were maybe a half dozen or so patrons, and about the same number of girls. The girls are pretty hot - definitely a step down from Mons, but still good looking. At least the ones I saw were all pretty friendly and not overly pushy. There's definitely some hustle for a private dance, but they take no for an answer without a lot of fuss. I wound up sitting and talking with one of the girls for about an hour. Maybe it's just because it was an off night and was slow, but the overall experience for me was better than the other clubs in Tampa.

It's a smoking building, which I'm cool with but might be a turn off for some. The water is the standard overpriced $5 a bottle. Don't remember if there's a minimum number or not, but I just bought one and them kept refilling it with tap water to keep the staff away.
