There are many events that take place there and they usually are a huge success. Although the Hot bar is gay friendly, this place will welcome you with open arms.

Two floors of anarchic decor, people and lifestyles. Posters and squatters' graffiti on the walls, assorted furniture here and there. Clientele are gay (mostly), ethnic, hetero, alternative or whatever. On Sunday mornings the management organizes a flea market (clothes and handicrafts) that stays open until 10p. On Thursday nights, there's live cabaret-theater. The music is as eclectic as the clientele and furniture: everything from salsa to rock and roll, with a bit of disco and Spanish crooners thrown in for good measure. Prices are reasonable, and if it's a slow night, there are lots of board games to choose from. Prices are good.
