[QUOTE=AresZ;2928443]250 k is way too much a tip.[/QUOTE]I agree and giving chocolates is even more shocking IMHO.

Why not a red rose next time?

[QUOTE=IrishMongrel;2928502]8-ish is way to early to visit anywhere you mentioned above. CJ's isn't open till 9 pm and will have low volume of girls until much later. BATS in Shangri-la is open as it is also a general bar / restaurant, but FL not allowed in untill about 9:30 - 10 pm, then it's fun watching the parade of girls coming in from a seat at the bar opposite the stairs. If you are going to either and are not there at the weekend, then go Wednesday. Ladies night.[/QUOTE]Thanks Irish Mongrel for the reply. Agree night clubs only get busy late. I am back in Jakarta on Wed may try Emporoum or Classic Hotel.

[QUOTE=ExpatAmerican;2928471]Taxi to North Jakarta and back: 150 K. 19 yo slim Classic girl with BBFS including tip-600 K. Or YMMV with a 30+ hooker from CJ $1-$2 M. Your choice.[/QUOTE]Great advice Expat American. Thanks more risk with FL. At classic of the one girl does not work could go back for second.

[QUOTE=AresZ;2928443]250 k is way too much a tip.[/QUOTE]It is not!

I tip IDR 300 K or 400 K for excellent service and if the girl meets my expectations.

[QUOTE=DiverOyster;2928240]I am planning to stay at the Luminor Hotel Pecenongan which is next door to Emporium. It's about a 10-minute walk to Classic per Google Maps.[/QUOTE]Hotel Luminor is a solid 3 stars.

The location is A+. You can walk to Hotel Travel in 10 minutes.
If you are interested in streetwalkers, this is the best place to stay. Lokasari Plaza is next door.

Correction: Emporium is 3 Kms from Luminor. It is NOT next door. Short Taxi ride.

You are pretty much 40 min away from any action direction. I was going to suggest Bekasi or Cibinong but those are just massage places with action.

You are better off biting the bullet and head to north Jakarta.

[QUOTE=JohnIsFun;2928421]First of all thanks to all the contributors. This thread has helped me use my first night in Jakarta well. Although I did not meet the right girl at Classic I am hopeful for the next visit. Could I ask for some advice to the more experienced Jakarta experts.

My hotel is in South Jakarta in Simatupang as I booked one close to the customer office. All the action is up north and the google maps shows Classic and Emporium over 45 min. Is there another place one can visit in the evening like 8 ish and save the taxi ride. I can see Jenja Jakarta and CJs, Dragonfly are closer. Immigrant is maybe next. So is it worthwhile trying to pickup a freelancer at one of those places.

Mars Spa Pandok is also not too far off. Would they have decent girls there. If it's pussy we are after and it's more how the girl perform then is it worth spending literally 2 hours in traffic.

I know it depends on personal preference. Since I am only get literally 3 more nights in Jakarta trying to best use my time.

Thanks, much appreciated.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=GiovanniVolo;2928381]I been to Lokasari squadre today, following this post.

Around 9 pm a mamasan show me some girls. 400 k for 1 hour, plus 130 k hotel. 1. 5 million all the night in my hotel.

I like two and I took one.

Local hotel was disgusting. Just one towel for two. I ask for condom before pay. They told they look for it, but after nobody give me. Mamasan told to do not use condom finally.

I was disappointed.

I do everything because I already paid, but with no penetration.

Girls was nice. Room was too hot, air conditioner was working to less.

I like a lot the girl, also for habits. I am evaluating to take one in my hotel, with rela shower and condom. <snip> [/QUOTE]If you like visiting Lokasari, you should stay in Hotel Luminor.
It is a 3 minute walk from Hotel to Lokasari.

You can bring the girl back to your Room. No time is wasted in Taxi ride and traffic.

Always bring the girl back to YOUR Hotel Room and stick to one hour.
The local Hotel you mentioned is disgusting and a mood killer.

I was referring to Luminor Hotel Kota on Jalan Mangga Besar.
From Luminor Kota (Mangga Besar) it is 3 Kms.

You are correct: Luminor Pecenongan is next door to Emporium.
Great choice if Emporium is your preferred destination.
You can walk to Emporium whenever you get the urge!

250 k is a more than normal.
300-400 k is wayyy more than normal.

Ask any local dude in the bar next time how much they tip.
Its usually 50 k - 100 k.
Tell them you regularly tip 300+ and they will either get pissed at you or laugh at you.

Obviously you are going to do what you want with your money.
But it wouldn't surprise me when the girls start asking foreigners regularly for 300 k tips.

[QUOTE=JimmyBoy99;2928608]I thought I was a Cheap Charlie but I am no match for you and AresZ.[/QUOTE]What? You trying to be a savior, giving out above standard tip to save their asses? Don't let your fking sympathy ruin the market.

When asking for a big tip becomes the norm, people like you will be ones to be crucified.

Did a session last night at Classic 2nd floor. When the girl and I arrived in the room I showed the room attendant the time on my cell phone. The phone rang after about 50 minutes, the usual time to finish up, shower, and get dressed, not at about 40 minutes as before, so it seems showing them the time you enter gets you the full time.
