The Hotel Roma is a long-standing gay-operated hotel just north of the Centro region in Medellín. Address: Carrera 50c # 60-13, La Candelaria, Medellín WhatsApp: They post notices regularly and announce any finca events here +57 321 8087174 The operator of Fercho's Amigos|Masajes has been hosting from this location regularly now for the past 20 months. It is more in the brothel style of the original Fercho's. They prefer that you call ahead to "book" your time, but if you show up they will very likely allow you to enter, so long as they in service. Keep in mind there are "days off" and Colombians enjoy a staggering number of holidays -- 18 national holidays plus 3 unique to Antioquía each year. You can then have a drink outside on the patio and "meet" the boys available before heading to a room. I have heard several costs floated around, suggesting that Freddy is very much engaging in gringo pricing. You have been warned. It should absolutely not cost more than 150.000COP for the escort and the room use. Negotiate the price (down) accordingly. I have also heard complaints that Freddy is asking for a 50.000COP deposit before arriving to "hold" your place. While I have zero concerns about trusting this business, it will be virtually impossible for a foreigner to conduct an e-transfer to a Colombian bank account. Remind Freddy of this, as he is well aware of this issue. What I would recommend instead is making yourself memorable by being (1) extremely polite, (2) generous with a tip to the house and to the escort, (3) being very social and make a point of finding Freddy and shaking his hand upon arrival. These actions go a very long way in paisa culture and Freddy will remember this upon your return visit. If you enjoy the experience, leave 50.000COP with Freddy (about $12.75USD at current exchange) as your deposit for your return. Mavica, ShivRoy, floridarob and 4 others 7 Quote

Members macdaddi Posted Wednesday at 12:53 AM Author Members Posted Wednesday at 12:53 AM Since someone asked, the neighbouhood is walkable and safe if you stay along the main Avenida Oriental. That area is mostly medical offices and clinical services. If you want to cut through La Candelaria (area south of Oriental) that is your business but don't blame me if you run into problems. Prado metro station is also very close by -- about an 8 minute walk away. Latbear4blk, Mavica and tm_nyc 3 Quote

I was disappointed, their boys are not at all attractive to me. Only one out of ten, or even less, seem to be hirable for me. This was not like that a few years ago, when I attempted a contract with one of their boys and failed. Back them they had much hotter guys their portfolio. Quote

I appreciate that Fercho continues to bring his service to the city. Sure, the boys can be hit or miss, but that’s a reflection of how much the city has changed in the past 5 years. There are several escort wrangler services like Ferchos, he is just the most organized (that I am aware of currently). Abrazos vinapu and Latbear4blk 2 Quote
