After a couple of weeks of hanging out in Buenos Aires we head towards Cordoba. When we first arrived in Argentine we did NOT plan on coming here due to its location and relatively nondescript posting on Lonely Planet. But after traveling a few weeks in Argentina we were noticing that although the Argentines were already one of the nicest people we've met in South America, that the people we had met from Cordoba were even nicer and super friendly.
So when we arrive to the state of Cordoba into the city of Bell Ville to look for a hotel, we go to a couple of hotels to compare prices as usual, but when we leave the last hotel we encounter a guy that approaches us very eagerly and asks whether we need a place to stay. When I ask how much, he says “nada”. At first I am a little suspicious then he points to his BMW GS 650 and says that they are part of a motorcycle gang and that provide this service to fellow motorcyclists.
Normally I would NOT have accepted an offer like this, especially having Tracey with me, but considering our experience with the Argentines (especially people from the state of Cordoba) we went for it. The place was DEFINITELY a motorcycle club (a little rustic and disheveled) but otherwise ok.(warm water and space)
Pablo, the guy who approached us ended taking Tracey and I out to show us the town and have a couple of drinks. At the end of the night when we were to pay the bill he was disappointed that we had covered it and was hoping to treat us even further!
Great Guy!
