Welcome to CRT!
The MPs you mentioned are great/enough to keep you busy before 8pm.
If you are a businessman with no Spanish Skills or wingman - I would call a few favorite CRT Hotels in the Gulch and ask for the cheapest room. Sportsmens, La Amistadt, Taormina are good places to start.
I think having a safer place to monger/crash/stay while on a business trip, makes a lotta sense versus getting a shoddy room for an hour in a lower class place. Lowest price SL rooms are $65 plus you get a little off with your CRT discount! I always recommend the SL for first timers specifically for the added benefit of many seasoned veterans to socialize with.
Taxi to Del Rey, pick up a hottie, taxi to SL, have your fun, hang out at SL bar and socialize with option to stay night at SL!
Let us know what you decide & give us a trip report!
Good luck
