In my most recent trip to Mexico City, I also went to Toluca de Lerdo for 3 days. It's an industrial town about an hour away from Mexico City. It's also the capital city of the state of Mexico. I saw potential there, but I didn't figure out the city in the time I was there.
Weather:
It's chilly, and it rains frequently. Supposedly, the name Toluca comes from the Aztec rain god Tlaloc. I don't doubt it.
How to get there:
I took a bus from Terminal Central del Norte. It cost me around 50 pesos and took an hour. There's also an airport that Spirit Airlines flies to.
The girls:
The girls were good looking and almost zero fatties. They are very receptive to foreigners and were very interested in what I was doing there. My answer- I want to see the volcano. Spanish is absolutely necessary because they don't really speak English. I only met one girl who spoke good English. They are more conservative than the girls of Mexico City though. It was a lot harder to get them to go home with me than the girls in DF.
Nightlife:
Vendome- This is the best nightclub in Toluca. It's actually in a mall near Metepec, another city. A cab there from Toluca was 70 pesos at night. I don't know the cover for the club, because the night I went there was a concert that I didn't have tickets to. I slipped a bouncer 300 pesos to let me in (which was probably more than the actual price). There were a lot of young hotties in the club, though I was surprised by the amount of older women in the club. I went there on a Thursday, and that's supposedly the best night there.
La Estacion- A bar with most people seated with friends. Pass
La Regina- A club with a half-seated, half-standing crowd. Party wound down around 2. It was alright.
Vendome was the best venue I went to, and the party went until around 4. However, the concert took away a large chunk of time meant for gaming. The crowd cleared out of the other places earlier.
Metepec also has some good cantinas for starting your night. Lots of colorful locals who don't really see foreigners plus cheap booze. Check for garañona, a green liquor made with herbs. Delicious.
Daygame:
I don't daygame, but it might be your best option in the city. I saw some cuties walking around in the city. It might be hard because of the chilly and rainy weather.
There's not much to do there during the day. I would recommend going to the nearby volcano, Nevado de Toluca. It's absolutely beautiful, although the altitude left me short of breath. It was snowing when I went there. You have to take a taxi to the top. They are group taxis, so you share it with others. On the ride back to Toluca, the taxi (a normal sedan) had seven adults in it.
