The pink house was charged in the raid and was closed (along with blanco and la sala) during the day.At night one girl sat in a chair off to the side (4/24),not really solictating.The owner had to appear in court.
Boca is not dead,only for those interested in drinking in and closing bars at 4am.The girls are actually more agressive during the day(moving about constantly,using the papi chulos)(one bar did reopen on the main street)the Cosimo owner chooses not to reopen until the situation stabilizes(strictly his choice not the governments or so I have been told)

I loved El Caucho Hotel, very good customer service. And the management are very accomodating. Location is excellent as it is a stones throw from the beach. I would reccomend to anyone that is looking for a small hotel at a good price.

El Caucho is my new favorite because they are very close to the beach, good italian restaurant on premises, the owners are very cool, and they have WIFI at the bar. . . .

I booked 4 nights at El Caucho for mid May. I hope it is all you say it is.

That's just where I wanna be in Boca Chica, on the other side of the highway! Not the safest place to be after dark.

Apologize if I'm mixing things up here, and it's not really important, but is "Cosimo" Cosmos Disco? The owner(s) of that business had no choice, two of those guys were arrested by Interpol and sent back to France. Just passing on old news (more than a year old).
And BTW Boca Chica is not as dirty as it used to be, but any closed business is converted to a garbage dump after a little while no one cares if the place is closed.

On the other side of Las Americas is definitely not the place to be, looking for a death wish crossing it drunk and at night. Is there free concho service with purchase of condo?

It's not the worst hotel in Boca Chica, it's not a hotel at all it's a condo. For one night no, but if you live there for a year or two yes. There's no such thing as a safe place in Boca Chica, forget it (unless you have your own dog).

I see a nightly rate posted on their site for $85 w/ air-conditioning, so I am assuming that they use the available rooms as apart-hotels, since they have kitchens.
