Last trip(March) the bank across from the Morazon was closed any info if the work is done and it is now open. We will be down next week.

I don't know if that branch is open yet. It was still closed when I was there a month ago.

As an alternative, I used the SCOTIA branch directly across from the entrance to the Gold Museum. Nice people, short teller lines for exchanging cash.

Stay at the Morazan last week, the bank is still close.There is a Scotia atm at the mas x menos on central avenue...do your shopping and withdraw your money at one place.

cheers,

BCR still closed for remodel but there is a Banco National across the street from Papi's. Scotia ATM's have a $1.50 charge

Perhaps not directed to you b/c you ask a legit question; but why not just change $ at the bank at the airport, before you head downtown or whereever you are going -

I know guys have posted they want to get underway asap, and get out of the airport sooner vs later, but never understood the mind set of not taking a few extra min's to change money at the airport bank (I have seldom waited very long, and I avoid having to find a bank down town, wait on line - or in the lobby - then have to carry money on the street back to my hotel, and risk possible robbery, and buy my exit visa - then its done, don't have to worry places are "out" of forms, or the computer is down, or pay a couple of dollars "service" fee)

Getting it done before I exit the airport just seems to me the most efficient way to take care of 2 tasks; my dos colonies
