I just returned from my latest trip to Monterrey. This was a short trip, only three nights this time. The last night of my trip was totally unbelievable. But, more on that later…

Here are a couple of logistically useful hints about staying at Hotel Plaza Del Arco:

1. Always bring a high wattage light bulb with you when you stay in Hotel Plaza Del Arco. The bulbs they use in those rooms make you feel that you are going blind for most of the time you’re in the room. Lately, I’ve become disciplined at bringing one of those high efficiency 100 watt spiral shaped bulbs, the kind that actually produces considerable more than 100 watts with less heat dissipation. I just replace the bulb for the duration of my stay, and then I put the old one back in the fixture before leaving. Just make sure that you pack the bulb in a plastic bag inside your suitcase so that pieces of glass do no get all through your things if it should happen to break. I know this recommendation may sound trivial. But believe me, you will really appreciate the significance of this suggestion after you have arrived, and you will enjoy the added comfort throughout the duration of your stay.

2. I always ask for a room on the interior of the hotel. The noise in the downtown streets of Monterrey is deafening, even up to two or three in the morning. There are so many loud noises…endless multitudes of buses, occassional ambulances, car alarms, and incessant horn blowing, that you will NOT get any sleep at night. So, don’t forget to ask for a room on the interior of the hotel.

3.. I was really elated to have discovered on my previous trip last time that I was able to access a high speed internet connection from a third floor interior room of Plaza Del Arco. My laptop accessed the unsecured Wifi system of the College located across the street from PDA, just slightly to the South. So, on this most recent trip, I decided that a fourth floor room, because or higher elevation, might be advantageous. But, I was not able to receive the Wifi signal from Room 401, which is directly above the room I had stayed in on my last trip, the one where I could actually access the internet directly from the room. But, the significant thing is that you can access the high speed connection from the interior rooms on the third floor, the ones that face Pino Suarez, and you can access it from the entire lobby area of the hotel, and even from a table in the back of the restaurant area of
the hotel.

4. Another thing I noticed is that the breakfast in the restaurant at PDA seems to have improved. I haven’t tried any other meals in the restaurant lately, and I only ate breakfast there again on the last day of my stay, but I think it’s better than it used to be. If so, it’s certainly more convenient to eat breakfast in the PDA restaurant than it is to try to catch a cab in the morning to the Best Western Restaurant at Galeana and Madero, which is where I frequent for breakfast otherwise.

Day 1:

On my first night in town, I wanted to bar fine a girl from El Cielo that I had met on my last couple of trips. She was very affectionate in the privados the first time I met her, and I spent way toooooooo much money on her. I probably spent about 1000 pesos with her just in the privados.

So, the next trip to Monterrey, I decided that I would not spend that kind of money on her again. I did have a couple of privados with her, but I limited them to a maximum expenditure of 200 pesos.

She has a really smoking hot body, and her face is not particularly beautiful but ok. She is my type, a flaca morena. But, I noticed that her personality was somewhat boisterous and aggressive, not soft and gentle, which is what I prefer. I began to sense that her personality was more possibly the boisterous hot tempered mercenary type, something that I might regret in the future.

I eventually concluded that she was really putting on an act to get me into the privados, and that there was not the sincerity of affection that I had originally hoped might be a component of her personality. I have many girlfriends in Monterrey that demonstrate a real sincerity of affection toward me, which is an essential component to experiencing a good GFE. If the girl is merely putting on an act, one that I can see through, then it’s a turn off.

I sensed that she was probably focused on me because I had spent so much the first time in the privados, but I could sense from her a little frustration that she was not able to extract more from me on these subsequent trips. I had mentioned that I wanted to pay a bar fine and take her to my hotel, but the last couple of trips she was unavailable, or we were never actually able to hook up.

I sensed that she had already concluded that she was going to have to make good on the salida (bar fine), or she was probably never going to get me to pay for future ridiculously expensive privados. I remember that after we were in my hotel, she asked me if I thought she was never really ever going to go with me on a salida.

Her question to me was very revealing. If you read between the lines, the content of her question to me suggests that she strategized that a salida would strengthen her position with me for future business, and it revealed to me that there was no real affection there, but rather her “act” was strictly business.

She even suggested that after our time at the hotel, she wanted me to return to the club for privados later in the week, and she told me I would receive more of the same thing she was giving me at the hotel, in the privados. She obviously viewed her demonstrated commitment to me by coming to the hotel as some kind of contract between us, and a prerequisite for me to spend outrageously ridiculous amounts of money on her in the privados. I also sensed that her expectation that by going with me to the hotel, she now owned me whenever I visited El Cielo.

My experience with her at the hotel was mediocre. As I said, she has a very hot body, but she is one of those girls that's in a hurry to finish. She was supposed to stay with me for 1-1/2 hours, and she was literally done and out the door in 45 minutes. Now, in this instance, I do not expect any kind of refund or anything because she did deliver the goods, but it is just so much fluff…mechanical…uneventful, and certainly not in the category of GFE.

Needless to say, my conclusions at the end of our session were not positive, and her prospects to retain me as a good client ARE in significant jeopardy. I did not complain to her or act unhappy about the outcome. She fulfilled her obligations to service me, but there are no fireworks. And, more importantly, I don’t think I really like her personality very much. I suppose she is not really my type...just too much the firecracker.

So, on subsequent trips to El-Cielo, I did not purchase any privados from her. I concluded that I was going to try to find another alternative at El Cielo. Unfortunately, in order to get her off my back asking from privados, I merely say “mas tarde” or tomorrow…whatever it takes. But, the downside to that is that she still has the expectation that I might be the Golden Goose. I realized that over the course of this trip, I would have to send her a clear message.

Day 2:
Worked hard all day. Decided to take a night off from salidas (bar fines). I knew I would have to get up the next day to work again, so I just visited my usual haunts…did some privados…nothing really eventful.


Day 3:
On my last night in town, after spending an enjoyable afternoon at the buffet at Prestige with Carlos and Porker, I ended up bar hopping with Porker the rest of the night. Unfortunately, Carlos had other prior commitments and left us to our own sorted devices.

We stopped in some of our regular haunts and we finally ended up at TVO on Zaragoza. I had wanted to visit TVO again after so many months of not being there, but I had talked myself out of it earlier in the week. I had concluded that I just didn’t think it was particularly productive because the privados there are in an open common area, and the idea of buying jarras, pitchers of “wine,” for the girls just didn’t particularly seem productive.

TVO holds a particular heartfelt significance for me. I met a girl in TVO one time that is still one of my all time best GFE experiences, even compared to all other parts of the World. This girl still holds a really solid place in my heart. My time with her is part of my initial formative GFE experiences in Monterrey, and the Monterrey GFE initiation experience is something one never really forgets.

I suspect that her significance is more a function of sentimentality as it relates to my initiation in Monterrey than to any real GFE comparative quality to other girls I have known elsewhere. But, we are emotional creatures, and I will never forget this girl, and the feelings she stirred in me at the time.

It has been about two years since I visited TVO. But, because of Cindy, TVO has a mystique that will forever be associated with my time with her. The time with Cindy lasted only for several days over the course of maybe a month or two, but those days with her were some of the best GFE one could experience. I remember Cindy actually spent four straight days with me one time, and even made a trip with me up to Reynosa. Cindy no longer works in the bars of Monterrey, but the sweet memories still loom large for me.

Anyway, I had not been avoiding TVO because of any melancholy reasons or anything, but over the course of a couple of years, I had decided that the buying of jarras, etc…was a practice that was non-productive. I began instead to concentrate on venues like Infinito, Matehuela, and Givenchy. TVO, along with Extasis, became clubs that I was not particularly interested in visiting. I had visited TVO once or twice over the last couple of years, and was not particularly impressed with the talent there.

But, after visiting TVO on my last night on this most recent trip, Porker and I discovered that a cast of really exceptionally gorgeous and beautiful dancers work there. But, keep in mind that we were visiting on a Friday night, a night when many fantastic looking girls come out of the woodwork all over Monterrey. But, comparatively, even for a weekend at other establishments, the girls at TVO were the cream of the entire crop in Monterrey. I have no idea of the level of quality of the talent during the week at TVO versus on weekends.

All I know is, Porker and I were absolutely astounded at the continuous lineup of really exceptionally gorgeous dancers, girls that had literally perfect bodies, and attractive faces as well. I choose to have a privado with one girl that actually looked like she was no more than seventeen, and her body was absolutely flawless…indescribable flaca nubile seventeen year old perfection with the most perfect butt…really! It occurs to me now that my TVO girl, Cindy, was also a girl with a perfect body, absolutely beautiful in almost everyway. So, TVO must have a relatively good scouting program. I will definitely not be discounting TVO in the future, especially on weekend nights.

I still have a reluctance to buy jarras, but in retrospect, I met Cindy buying jarras at TVO, so maybe I should reconsider the entire strategy versus the lower cost option offered at Infinito, Matehuela, and Givenchy. It’s possible that mixing the two strategies might prove to be a nice diversity of change.

If the girls Porker and I saw dancing there are actually available for takeout, it may be well worth the added cost of buying a jarra or two, if that sort of thing is affordable for you to do. But, another consideration is the cost of a salida from TVO, which is around 1800 pesos. Certainly, that is very expensive compared to the other options from Infinito, Matehuela, and Givenshy, which is merely 1350 pesos ($128USD). But if the expense isn’t an issue, or you want to treat yourself to an exceptionally beautiful woman, then TVO definitely had the lineup on Friday night…OUTSTANDING, REALLY!!!

We probably spent about an hour at TVO, then we decided to check out Extasis. NOTHING was exceptional at Extasis, and I will probably only visit there periodically in the future, just to determine if things have changed for the better. They have remodeled the place, and it is nicer on the inside, but the selection of girls is not impressive, IMHO. After Cynthia (my Cindy #2 compared to Cindy #1 at TVO) left Extasis to have a baby, the place dropped off my radar, and has never really regained any stature in my book.

My last stop with Porker was Infinito to check out the lineup. I found a girl that I had once bar fined from El Cielo, and I decided to take her to the privados to say hello. It was getting late so Porker decided to head for home about that time.

After a short privado at Infinito, I decided to head over to El Cielo. Porker and I did a run through at El Cielo earlier that evening, and I had told one of the girls (not the one from my first night in town) that I would return to bar fine her later that night around 11-12pm. It was now about 1am, and I was late returning to El Cielo to pick up my bar fine.

I have several girlfriends in El Cielo (and in Infinito too), and juggling them all without making each of them really mad is getting to be a very difficult task. Remember, the girl I had bar fined two nights earlier was also expecting me to buy some privados from her, which I only had promised to do to get her off my back. But, over the course of my entire stay in Monterrey this trip, I never buy her any subsequent privados. Obviously, I was thinking she was going to be really pissed off when she sees me bar fining another girl after having reneged on buying a couple of privados from her subsequent to our salida together.

Fortunately, my girl from two nights ago was not on the floor when I arrived at El Cielo on my last night in town, and the object of my desires was on stage just finishing her set. As I walked into the bar she smiled really big, and clapped her hands together in genuine delight that I had shown up. So, she came down off the stage and asked me if I wanted to do the salida now. I said yes, and I gave her 350 pesos for the salida. In a few minutes she was back fully clothed, and ready to go. Fortunately, I never saw the girl from the previous night, and I avoided the contentious issue of why I brushed her off in favor of another girl.

Later, as I was walking to the hotel with the new girl, she told me that my girl from two nights ago was angry that I was leaving with someone else. She had apparently talked to her in the dressing room. I’m sure this whole affair is not something that can not be remedied with a few pesos, so I’ll see what happens when I return in December or January.

Anyway, this new girl was OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!! She is literally a nympho maniac. I would categorize our session not as a GFE, but as pure lust…on her part. Don’t get me wrong, I have typical male lust, but this girl had an uncharacteristic female lust that is very rare indeed. It was a delight to be with a frickin’ porn star quality girl that really wants to engage in as much sex as possible. She stayed with me the entire amount of allotted time, 1-1/2 hours. She is having her 20th birthday on Sunday, and she has a hard body. She is tall, blonde, and has a cute face. She has no kids and is as tight as a drum.

But, here is the more interesting thing. Many times when I bring a girl to the hotel, I like to set up my laptop to play various music selections that I have cataloged. In her case, I asked if she wanted to listen to some music.
She came over to look at the selection of albums there, and she exclaimed in a really excited manner, “Oh-Eagles…me gusto mucho.”

Those of you who know me well will find her exclamation significant. I am a long-time fan of the Eagles, and they rank up there with my most favorite music selections, if not my absolute favorite group. But, more interestingly, the girls of Monterrey are not that familiar with the Eagles, with the exception of Hotel California, and even then, with Hotel California being played quite regularly in some of the clubs, most of the girls do not know of the Eagles. So, for my new girl to select the Eagles as one of her favorites was prophetic indeed.

But, not only did this girl know of and like the Eagles a lot, she actually recited the words to the songs as they were playing. She speaks NO English, and she was reciting the words to the songs in English. We played songs that would be considered slightly obscure even to North Americans who may be completely familiar with the Eagles, songs that are generally known but not played regularly to the masses. She knew the words to those lesser known songs without any hesitation whatsoever. Of course, not knowing any English, she does not have a clue as to the meanings of the words, que lastima.

As I said, this girl was a nympho for sex, and she had GFE qualities, but the sex dominated her desires, versus the romantic aspect of many GFE encounters. I’m not complaining here, as her love of the same music, and her lust for me made everything surreal. This was a one in a million GFE/Porn Movie/Classic Rock Concert Experience…a GFE-PM-CR (GFPMCRE) 

I was disappointed to learn that she doesn’t have a cell phone, and that she literally lives an hour from Monterrey. But, she was eager to get my phone number so she could call me. I don’t like giving girls my cell phone number, so I gave her my page number instead, a place where she can leave a message. I told her that I don’t answer my cell phone often and that she will just have to leave a message if I am not there. The pager concept works best for me. I certainly don’t need Mexican bar girls calling me in the middle of client meetings, right?

Unspongebobicus,
Sounds like a cool trip. No pics of the GFE-PM-CR (GFPMCRE) &#61514? Come on buddy share with all your buddies not living under the sea.

That reminds me of an amusing incident - my (now ex) novia and I were in a hotel in Nogales, and we were watching music videos. While I do speak some Spanish, I'm sure it's with a very "American" accent. A popular Chayanne tune came on and I was singing along without the slightest hiccup or hesitation. She gave me this look of complete astonishment, as my minimally-Spanish-conversant self proceeded to sing the words to this song in what must have been a perfect accent. Her only words where "Como es possible?" Listen to a song long enough and you can learn to imitate the sounds - even if you haven't a clue what the words mean.

Good Report, UnSponge.

I am sorry to have missed you last time I was down. Last time I was in Plaza DelArco, the place was really grubby. I was on the third floor, on the same side you were on. There was a large burn in the rug where an iron had been set down. Also, there was once again a sports team with early teen players running up and down the halls.

That being said, the staff was really nice, and the breakfast was pretty good, Have they cleaned up the rooms any?

Hi Sandy,

No, I'm sorry to report that the rooms are still pretty grubby. IMHO, the carpets are the worst offender. I think the rooms are generally clean, the linens, blankets, pillow cases, etc., are also otherwise relatively clean. It's just that the carpets look really like crap. Actually, the hotel staff is pretty good at vacuuming the shitting carpets pretty regularly.

With the added bonus of Wifi high speed internet being "available" from within PDA, it is still my preferable option.

However, if you want to stay at a slightly nicer place, just East of PDA on Madero, give the Best Western a try. It's at Madero and Galeana, about six or seven blocks East of PDA on the South side of the street at the corner. The room rates are probably about as good as PDA. They may even be a little cheaper now that PDA has had a price increase.

The restaurant at Best Western is pretty good also, at least for breakfast anyway. I haven't sampled their other meals. They used to have a decent small breakfast buffet, but they have since discontinued it.

I was actually the first of the Monterrey crew to discover PDA almost three years ago. I had bar fined my former favorita for the first time, Cindy from TVO, and my waiter offered to take us to find a hotel. He stopped at several hotels along the way, and finally settled on PDA after determining on my behalf that they were girl friendly. At that time I spoke very little Spanish.

Regio has accused me of speaking a Chinese version of Spanish, but he has since paid me several compliments that seem to indicate that I am improving incrementally with time.

I still have some very fond memories of that first night with Cindy at PDA. One of the funniest memories is of the bell boy coming up to my room to ask me a question, and him seeing Cindy lying in bed behind me as I answered the door to the room, her covers pulled up to cover her flawless body. The kid's eyes were as wide as a deer caught in the headlights seeing that perfectly beautiful Mexican girl lying in bed with the covers pulled up around her...and only the limits of his imagination to go by :-)

I know I still get goose bumps thinking about her...

Que Pasa!
Chinese Spanish, what will they think of next. Probably will not be in the area until mid year next. Hope you and Regio are around, we need to spend a bit of time together.

Now if I could get over my Colombia novia....

Sandy

Gotta tell you that they ARE refurbishing the PDA just now.
Wasted and one friend stayed there just this weekend and they are fixing up stuff at the hotel... thing is, of course the idea later on will be to raise the rate.

Looking forward to dropping a few pesos with you next year!

Sandy
