Amerika — Attraction in Autonomous City of Buenos Aires

This place has changed drastically for the worse since my last visit in 2019. Security searched my bag upon entering. The cover charge is roughly $15.5 USD and the wells drinks (beer) are free (they give you a refillable cup). I felt like everybody there was way overserved. I had a drunk guy shove past me in the bathroom and plenty of handsy drunk people shoving and moving past me, someone grabbing around my shoulders and someone spilling/throwing a drink on me from above as I descended the staircase. The club was also way above capacity and crowded. There was an assault in the bathroom on the ground level and security ejected the disorderly patron and closed the bathroom for a few minutes to investigate. The upstairs left balcony used to be a seedy area with blackout curtains and seating, but that has been removed. In my opinion that is not an improvement. I finally was irritated by the bad, mean drunk energy and left after an hour. Upon exiting, security searched my bag and made me remove my cellphone and unlock it...

It is an "open bar" concept which I can appreciate but it is VERY confusing especially for visitors because you can't get every drink from every bar. Some only serve beer and others only serve gin and tonic etc. Also it being an open bar meant that the lineup was kind of ridiculously long. I would go again,good age range and it appeared to appeal to everyone. Music was great and so were the people. I didnt stay the entire night I ended up going to Club69 as it still remains the best gay ol' time I had in...

Reminds me a bit of what The It in Amsterdam used to be all those years ago. Gay disco with a very friendly and relaxed vibe. Friday nights are hetero friendly and very good value with all drinks included in the cover charge. Saturdays more gay oriented and Sundays are gay only. Downstairs normally Garage/Deep/Future style EDM. Upstairs is a smaller dance area with more Latin music and behind a large curtain in the corner on that same floor there's even a dark room, so be careful where you wander of to ;-) The neighborhood is a bit quiet at night so watch out for purse snatchers and the like in the area. Beter take a taxi to drop you of...
