South Bogota by the airport apt????

I understand that south Bogota by the airport isnt a very nice area, but does anyone have any place for rent or know who i can get in contact with about renting a 2 bedroom apartment towards the end of october to the beggining of november, like 2 maybe 3 weeks. I dont need anything super nice, just in a safe area where I dont have to worry about getting mugged, I need to be 5 no more then 10 min drive from the airport. Please help so i can put a deposit down to save it for me, thank you.

South Bogotá by the airport is Fontibon, it is not a bad area but it is not as nice. I don´t believe you will had big chances to get mugged there. You might be looking at Modelia or near Corferias.

Hi Bamapits, I have a good option for you. You may remember our conversation a few months back, well, I have invested in a short stay house on El Dorado, the road to El Dorado Airport. It is near the Centro, in a safe classical neighborhood called Macarena. From there, easy transport can be had anywhere South. It is a Studio apartment with large beds, sleeps 2 comfortably or 4 with shared beds. I would like to tell you more. It is available starting Oct 8...Please message me...

Best,

Ryan

Thanks bro, I am just looking for somethin near to the airport since my girlfriend works for avianca and will be staying with me while I am there, I want her to have the easiest access to getting to work in the morning. Would this Salitre/Salitre Plaza be my best bet? I have never been to Bogota, just medellin 7 times... Thanks

Have you noticed how brutal the traffic is getting in Bogotá? Had to pick up and take my daughter to El Dorado from the north end from around 7th and 75th, and also took her to lunch at the Club Militar at Cr. 50 No. 13 - 50. Bumper to bumper and I mean bumper to bumper..

ROTFLMAO

However, Mrs. Gator has eyes in the back of her head and a wicked right cross. BTW, the new way to beat Pico is two have two cars each with the last plate number to match the day. A neighbor does that so he can drive downtown every day by switching cars. The TM is a zoo especially during rush hours.

Generally, the times I have been in Bogota were because I was either going to, or coming from Villavicencio. And, the drive from Bogota to Villavicencio takes 2.5 hours or so. At least 45 minutes of that is getting the hell out of Bogota. Terrible.

Bama -- I live in Salitre when I travel to Bogota and agree with Gringo -- easy to get back and forth to the airport, a lot of nice restaurants within walking distance, Salitre Plaza is very nice and the area is safe.
