Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience. If you are staying in a Chinese hotel, then order room service from the hotel spa. It will be expensive but it is safe and convenient. This is what I do when I travel within China. Always overpriced but convenient. Otherwise most MPs off the beaten path has extras available. Otherwise spend about an hour reading the forum. You will find all kinds of useful info. Maybe try a nearby Spring MP. But you kind of have to be a bit familiar with the drill and with the different Springs, YMMV.
Immediately cancel your credit card, and report this transaction to your credit card
[QUOTE=Sdgsdg2013;2253197]Hi all,
After couple of criticism on asking help thought to post this real experience.
Was avoiding this as I my self still could not believe it happened to me.
Came here from India for business trip last month. Visited bund. Went to East Nanjing Rd Subway and took exit 3. Out of 2 local guys one approached me and gave me one photo. Said only 200 for good. Massage. Was very tired and followed him. He handed over me to lady name l I l I her number ends with 5781. She took me in taxi. Asked 3 to 4 times when I came and when I am going back. Safer side I said next week and that was catch. She asked taxi driver to go to other location and said that she will take good care of me. On reaching venue one lady was waiting. Both escorted me to one building 19th floor. 3 to 4 ladies were there. I felt something fishy. But it was too late. Lili left me after locking me in one room with all sofa. Other lady forced me to select one lady. I did. Thought I can escape. But no real drama started. I refused many times but she pulled my Johnny and stared stroking. I kept refusing but she was also frightened and told me that it's her job and she has to do it. After 10 minutes nothing happened so she gave up. Asked me to wait in the room..[/QUOTE]Immediately cancel your credit card.
Report this transaction to your credit card company.
Ask for a "reversal" of the transaction.
Lesson learnt.
Enjoy and report.

Translator. To ask, or not to ask. That is the question!
[QUOTE=FantasizeMe;2251881]Visited Shanghai in the last month for some work. Spend almost one whole week with a hectic schedule in the daytime. As you know after crackdown lots of spas and saunas are not available. With the help of some ISG members got good leads there.
Day Seven.
My Translator was with me and I asked for a service but she declined. But she gave me a very good young nice Chinese girl. [/QUOTE]I rarely use an interpreter unless I have critical, technical work to do, but your comment got me wondering. Is it more of an insult to ask a professional interpreter (I'm talking a real expert interpreter) for FS? Or is it more insulting if you DON'T ask!

Near Crowne Plaza on Panyu Lu
Since there has been a bit of discussion on availability near Crowne Plaza on Panyu, let me add some intel. There is a spa right around the corner. The signage is huge, but the name of the spa is hard to make out because of the fancy lettering, but maybe it is called Shanana. It is located in the basement. The place is huge. Many corridors and huge sitting area. They have two types of providers. The legit ones wear something like Hawaiian shirts, LOL. The ones that offer HJ are dressed in quasi nurse uniforms. But for the latter gals, the rates are very high. The cheapest is 588 rmb for an 80 minute stress relief massage. And then to get an HJ, they usually start the negotiation at 1000 rmb. Some will go down to 300, but some will not even do it for 500, believe it or not. The other down side is that all the showers in the rooms have been shut down since the crackdown, so you have to shower in a separate large shower room and there's the real risk that you may run into someone you know since the spa is well known and has lots of customers.
There is a spa on 390 Panyu, which SNR gives me credit for discovering. I am not sure I discovered it, but I did previously report on this place. It used to be a KB place (BBBJ with CIM) before the crackdown, but after the crackdown it looked like it was reborn as a legit place. I went there for a foot massage and the provider was annoyed and told me to get a spa next time. Sure enough, on the menu there are spa services and massage services. There are two spa options, one for 388 and another for 588. Both offer HJ, but a 200 tip is often necessary. BTW, the 588 option is just 2 gals.
Finally, further down on Panyu, there used to be a MP with only a 288 option, but on the front desk it says NO TIPPING. Turns out that this place was a HJ MP. The provider gives you 20 minute massage and then massages your little bro for another 20 minutes. However, post crackdown, it looks like a legit place now. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Anything else near here? There's that place on Huasheng, the MP is in a small alley, but I wouldn't recommend it.
