Whats in walking distance of el conde?

[slipheed]

I have found maps of SD, but none have a distance scale. What is the distance from the el conde to George Washington is in miles? I'll be staying in Hotel Mercure (thanks to excellent reviews from ISOC members). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

By George Washington I presume you mean the Malecon and it's about a half mile away down the hill toward the ocean. There are many place you can hang out on at the Conde that are very worthwhile as you can meet many chicas there. On one end of the Conde is Pacos which is an open air restaurant. This is the entrance point to the Conde and a place to view hundreds of chicas as they go about their day. Working girls also hang out there especially at night so it's a place you can hook up if you want. On the other end of the Conde is Columbus park. This is another location where you can hook up with girls. There is also an open air restaurant there as part of the Hotel Penabla. Food is good. In between these 2 locations are many other places to sit, watch the girls or hook up including park benches or other open air restaurants. Change money at Frank's on the Conde or across the street at Pollo Rey. Pollo Rey usually has a better rate. There's an exchange office on the right in the back. There are a few of us who are very familar with the Conde and can answer any of your questions so fire away. Have a great trip!

It's chica friendly if you're only bringing in one chica. Also, there's a chica fee of about $17. Your best bet is to book the internet special for 2 which includes breakfast for 2. When you bring your chica in, just have them add her name to your room.

If you add her name to the room, isn't it possible for her to get a key when your not around?

I worked at hotels for many years and thats how it goes in NYC. If you put someone's name on your room they have just as much access as you do.

Hello slipheed

It is hard to say exactly how long it is in miles since El Conde is a half-mile-long area and George Washington Ave. is several miles long.

But from Hotel Mercue (in El Conde) to the Napolitano Hotel (on George Wash Ave.) is a 10-minute walk (half mile).


Here are maps with step by step directions for you.

Yes and no!

True in theory. But the desk clerks understand this is just a formality. The Hotel had some problems with hoes in the past so the manager started this new policy so the guest would be responsible for the chica and not the hotel. Also, when slipheed used the term "chica friendly", i assumed he was in fact referring to bringing hoes into his room. And i also assumed he wouldn't be leaving them alone. When he dismisses her, the name comes off his registration if he requests.
