Touche Bar/Club in Chicago
***** Great neighborhood leather bar
Posted: September 27, 2009
If you're into the leather scene, this is the place on the north end. Firendly crowd and all types of men there.

Hydrate Bar/Club in Chicago
***** Typical club on Halsted.
Posted: September 27, 2009
I was visiting Chicago as a tourist looking for a good club on Halsted. This club is more of a neighborhood bar with lots of locals rather than for tourists. Moderate crowd for a Friday & Saturday night; not huge but not empty either. Mix of gay & straight. Decent drink prices. I had a good time there although I've been to better clubs in my life.

Berlin Bar/Club in Chicago
***** Good neighborhood club
Posted: September 27, 2009
I was a tourist visiting Chicago solo looking for a good dance club. It is more for the locals, but I had a good time anyway. It doesn't get going until after midnight, but a good croud by 1 am. The club is a mix of gay & straight with lots of girls. Decent drink prices.

Fountainhead Pub Bar/Club in Vancouver
***** Be careful here!
Posted: March 30, 2009
In March of 2009, there was a gay bashing here - the victim is in serious condition as of this writing. Just another attack in an epidemic of gay bashings in the heart of Vancouver's gay district along Davie Street. Hard to believe we are not even safe in our own clubs! Outrageous!

Numbers Bar/Club in Vancouver
***** Great club for the over 30 crowd.
Posted: February 01, 2009
This is a fun multi-level bar & dance club that caters to a more mixed age crowd. While Celebrities & Odyssey are chiefly for 20-somethings, this is a club where 30 & 40 somethings will feel more comfortable. It is also not loaded with girls like the other gay Vancouver clubs seem to be.

Coconut Cove Guesthouse Hotel in Fort Lauderdale
***** Nice guesthouse close to the beach.
Posted: December 06, 2008 - Visited: November 2008
Like many of Fort Lauderdale's guesthouses, this establishment caters mostly to older men. Don't be fooled by the hot models on the brochures. Beyond that, it is a nice property 1 block from the beach. Rooms are large, clean & comfortable. Nice grounds with large heated pool. Good breakfast in the morning.

Island House Hotel in Key West
***** Great place in the Keys!
Posted: December 06, 2008 - Visited: November 2008

Coral Reef Guesthouse Hotel in Fort Lauderdale
***** Wonderful guesthouse!
Posted: November 05, 2008 - Visited: November 2008
Next time you're in Fort Lauderdale, treat yourself to a stay at this guest house. It is located in an upscale neighborhood a little out of the way, but less than 15 minutes by car to downtown, airport or Wilton Manors. 5 minutes to beach by car, or take one of their bikes for a fun ride. The owners go out of their way to make you feel at home. Snacks, sodas, beer available all day. Great breakfast spread. If you're there on a Saturday, they just may treat you to a cruise on the intercoastal in the Stingray (their boat). Awesome trip. The hotel grounds are clean and feature beautiful tropical flora. Rooms are clean & comfortable.

Coral Sands Motel Hotel in Los Angeles
***** Older cruisy hotel in Hollywood
Posted: October 19, 2008 - Visited: May 2008
This is not the Waldorf Astoria by any means - it's a cruisy older basic hotel in the heart of Hollywood. Yes it is a little worn, but I had a great stay there. Porn on 2 channels daily. Nice pool & hot tub area, where guys cruse. There are some drugs so be careful. I saw a guy smoking meth in his room.

Badlands Bar/Club in San Francisco
***** Great video bar
Posted: October 19, 2008
Badlands is not for everyone; if you don't like pop dance music or videos you won't like it. It's definitely not some uber-chic club in Manhattan. I was there twice - on a Friday & Saturday nights. It gets going early, by 10 pm it's packed and it closes @ 2 am sharp. I found the bartenders to be very nice & its cheap too ($2 cover & $3 bottles of beer). There are lots of tourists there, so the croud tends to be friendlier - I danced with several hotties there!

Island House Island House South Beach Hotel in Miami
***** Decent low-cost South Beach Guesthouse.
Posted: October 19, 2008 - Visited: October 2007
This is not an exclusive gay guest house; lots of straights and no cruising, but it is gay friendly and a decent place to stay 1 block north of the beach & close to great South Beach attractions. It's also affordable & they have a great breakfast buffet. If you stay & have a car, park in the public parking garage on 13th street; it's cheap & close to Island House.

Neighbours Bar/Club in Seattle
***** Cool club.
Posted: October 05, 2008
Neighbors is a cool club. Yes, there are lots of straight people who show up and sometimes attitude, but overall you should have a good time here. Thrusday 80's night is fun, especially for those "over 30". The club really gets humpin' after midnight.

Parliament House Hotel in Orlando
***** Great motel, bar, club & cruisy resort all in one!
First to Review - October 05, 2008 - Visited: October 2007
Great cruisy motel with a bar & nightclub right on the premises. The club was great - lots of hot guys were there. After the dancing was over, there's lots of action in the hallways of the motel. Nice pool & grounds, too. Cool staff.
