The Z Formerly: ACI, Alternative Club

Really the only option in San Antonio

Not a bad place for a little or a lot of action. Beware of the hot tub (it is nasty) and the pool has been removed but who goes to swim, right?

Not a gymn?

Yes, wash under your armpits and get ready for a REAL workout. Weekends are crowded. Safe---rarely raided.

Good cruising

ACI was hot Sat night lots of gay men ready and willing. I had a great time and met two guys who became good friends. The place was clean through out the club and the staff was super friendly!!

Still a basically fun place

ACI has been around for quite a while now, and is showing its age somewhat, but is by no means trashy or unclean-- it's about as clean as such an establishment can ever hope to be. Personally I don't care for some of the changes that have been made but that is purely a matter of taste. The sry sauna has been broken down for a while now, but the steam room and hot tub are kept going and are good places for some action, as of course are the dark rooms and the porn rooms. There is a main bunking area (good luck getting any rest there though), 3 TV rooms (one with a "cave" and ramp for glory hole type action), and 2 dark rooms. Large hot tub and outdoor swimming pool with deck that gets plenty of sunlight and there is a very high privacy fence so nude sunbathing is not a problem. Lots of private rooms that vary in size and some locations are definitely more desirable than others (generally the lower numbers rooms, 20 and below, are in more trafficked areas, so if you want a true break from the action, get a higher number room). The staff's politeness factor varies, although since Super Steve's departure they are not as friendly/efficient. I rarely leave disappointed when i get there, not that often since I actually don't live in SA but when I go there are always hot guys and MAN can they suck dick in SA! Use your head (the bigger one) and your common sense (if something don't seem right, it likely ain't, walk away), play safely, and you'll have virtually worry-free fun for a few hours.

The Best Ever...however owner has lost sight

I often here bad things from either new people or ones that have given up on ACI because the owner no longer sits and listens to the customers, he is too busy trying to spend his resources on other projects that tend to fall apart, like most people who take their eye off their original passion...the passion of ACI is no longer there...but when I go I reignite despite the rude employees that manage to keep their job escaping drug testing that is a joke there as we all know....
