Wonder how is Paragon?
From the photo, it's really not bad based on S$25 / night.

But does Hotel Gabion offer driver to drive you to Villa & Ruckko? But is hotel gabion room condition old? I stay in Rasa Sayang before. Their room condition is a bit too old.
I do agree in some way that having a driver is good. In fact I use driver before to go beach & waterfall. And I agree 100% on not paying any tips to the guide for all his services.
Cheers

Posts: 31Sorry for my silly question :
1. What is BBBJ, DATY, GFE, CIM
2. For 200,000 RP , we could get the girl in our hotel for how long time? I heard it's 1 day , then when we have to say bye to her in case we go there at evening.
3. For Chinese Indo girl , any tips to get them?
And any other race? As I dislike dark skin.
Tks

Posts: 61What you say is correct. For two or more people a guide makes sense. Stephen Raj is travelling solo I believe. If it is one's first time in T. Balai and one has no "previous relationship" with a guide, it may end up costing you a lot, hence spoiling the fun.
It's more fun as a group tour.

what are the reasons i use a guide at balai
1. i know he gets a commision from the pimp, thats why i dont
give him any tips
2. u call him he books the rooms for u at any hotel of your choice
which my is hotel gabion and if i like a particular girl he book the girl
for me.
3. he pick u up from the terminal u dont have to worry about the sharks
waiting outside and bring u back to the terminal on your return journey
4. u need to eat, so he pick u up and go to a nice place to eat
of course for this u dont need him there are food everywhere in balai
5. at night u want to go our maybe to a disco, having him will certainly
be a bonus to keep the trouble makers out of the way
i agreed u dont need a guide in balai, if all u want to do is fuck all day
stay in the room do nothing else, watch t.v.,call for room sevice
but for me and my friends we like somebody local around, just in case
so he makes a few bucks no big deal.

There are about ten "guides" who operate out of the ferry terminal and offer taxi service, girls, a hotel etc. If you arrive with a taxi, a commission is paid by the hotel to the driver -guaranteed. Hence, book by phone in advance. There is no need to use a guide to go to Villa; use a hotel taxi if possible. The girls at Villa and Ruko went for R180,000 LT in April 2006 and the quality was decent. If you go with a guide, you're facing an extra R70,000 to R100,000. The girl I booked had a good attitude. You can also check out a booking place called KFC (if I remember correctly) not far from the terminal.
Concerning the Hotel Maximillian:
The staff are pleasant and they are the only positive thing going for this hotel. The cafe food is passible. The front desk has no safety deposit box and my room was overpriced at Sing$38. Compared to Batam, the rooms are expensive in my opinion. Avoid the karaoke lounge on the 6th or 7th floor. They charged me for five beer and I ordered two (one for me, and one for a hostess. I disputed the R80,000, but to no avail, as the billing wasn't clear at the time. It was deliberate. There were no "lookers" in this KTV and even the mami was pushing for me to buy her a drink. I left sober after 20 minutes.
If I were to return, I might try the Rasa Sayang or Padi Mas, the latter a classier hotel.
I'm bule and not easily rattled, but my comfort level was not high in this city, unlike in Batam. This is a single activity town. Have a good time and watch your ass.

Posts: 15I'm planning to go to tanjung balai 1st time. I'm from Malaysia. Any tips and fare's there. How much an average girl there costs per night? Anything I should know? This will be my 1st trip outside Malaysia. Never booked a women before. My ex gf sucked my cock once but she left to someone richer.
