Tegucigalpa w/ three friends?

Question

Me and my three friends are thinking about going to Tegucigalpa Honduras to visit one of our very close friends that recently went back there for good (we'd be staying in his house about an hour from the airport). Two of us speak spanish and I've heard that it really isn't that dangerous compared to other hispanic capitals. Can anyone tell me what to look out for, what to stay away from, etc.? Anything would be greatly appreciated.

Frankly, is there anyplace in this world that is safe?? I mean, sure you have heard bad things about latin country's capital but I am sure you'll like Tegucigalpa. First of all you'll be safe with your 3 friends  as long as you don't go to ghetto places like strip bars and cheap disco. Basically you can have fun going to restaurants, some nice "american-imitation" bars, and of course the mall (there isnt very much to do). I wouldnt recommend you to go inside "downtown Tegucigalpa" as it is crowded and ppl only would go there to buy cheap things(cloth, and stuff)
