Relief is in sight, my friend

So you’re at a club on a Friday night. Live bands, DJs, hot babes, and drinks galore. But don’t forget the bladders. All of them ready to explode as you wait in an endless line with other bloated bellies. It’s just not a club night without the anticipation of the sweet moment when you can finally drunkenly hover over the disgusting toilet and try your damnedest to avoid any splashback. Such a glamorous lifestyle.

Lucky for you, relief is in sight during Star Swim, a poolside event at Hotel San Carlos. The event offers everything a club does, with live music by What Laura Says Thinks and Feels, Miniature Tigers, and K N E S S E T. But there’s one beautiful difference: a giant public toilet, er, pool to take care of that busting bladder.
