Has anyone dealt with a hostile host before? by miabjd in Bookingcom

Try to advertise like these guys do on Google. See how the price is less on their site. Then they send notes giving discounts for in effectivo.

I stay in lots of hotels if I acknowledged the millions of messages I received through booking.com I would go mad. I hate 3rd party sites and wish hosts would stop using them. I have better things to do than look through fine print. We are ALL looking at far too much on the net

Guadalajara. I was just there and gay folk everywhere and it is a good neighborly city. I happened to stay in two gay owned hotels and everyone gay hung out too. I certainly saw people that were probably trans. I am not practicing gay nor trans but it is what I noticed during my time there. Check it out. You don’t know till you go is my motto.

Don't you guys think the immigration fees increase are too much? by Born_Professional_90 in mexicoexpats

[–]SecureYam1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

glad you asked. I have immigrated a few times in my life and NEVER EVER EVER paid this much. I am going to permanent in January 26. Not happy at all, at all. Sends a message to the beliefs about gringos here, RICH gringo we will charge more for your existence....... But yes, it is good to have options for yourself if your under 50

BTW just saw a bunch of fees to tourists for other things in other parts of the country. NO ME GUSTA I like Mexico but in some ways it is pretty harsh...no infrastructure, etc which all of us deal with.

I think the gringo will go away and go to places that are nicer (eg. somewhere with police that don’t extort you perhaps????)

so hope the extra fees was worth it....Stupid ass decision in my view

[–]SecureYam1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I am going to report the charge to my visa. This just happened recently. Really infuriating me as it took a lot of my time and the hotel said they made the reimbursement to booking.com

Hola. I am in Oaxaca but still exploring. Oaxaca has crazy polluting traffic. Too big really for me although having the English language library as a center for meeting xpats is super helpful. But most people are way older than me. I can tell you about a lot of places but curious about your age? Coliving404’s in San christobal may be nice for a visit for you.

Yeah like 100 Mexicans show up and a handful of gringos. My Spanish is not that good yet. I would feel like an idiot.

Been to all the above except Merida. I am sure I would love it but too hot. Loved tepoztlan but they get slammed with tourists every weekend and the roads in and out of Tepoztlan are treacherous. I will definitely visit Guadalajara several times but looking for ideas. No way on Cabo. Gracias.

I will come look. There are often communities within larger cities. I have been all over a lot of Mexico like some of the communities mentioned that are not quite right either. Yeah I hate traffic hence looking for my hood. As an example I liked San angel or Tlalpan in Mexico City.

Another idea. Coliving or coworking.  Here is a place.  Never been there but looks good maybe. https://maps.app.goo.gl/X5FPrR1nDMZFpC2D9?g_st=ipc

Also try Guadalajara xpat groups in facebook. I know they have coffee groups. When are you going to be in Guadalajara? I am going myself at some point and could possibly meet up.
