Jakarta

[Irish Mongrel]

Have found myself in Jakarta for a couple of nights. Not a good time with the ASEAN meeting going on. Went out last night after arriving in hotel. Wanted to see how the FL scene was looking and came back very disappointed. Did a quick run out to EP in Kemang to catch up with a couple of friends for a beer, and it was pretty much a sausage fest. Was there from about 9:30 pm. There where a few girls milling around in the main bar and a party of girls floating around in the restaurant, but the rest of the place was empty. One stunner playing pool, but she seemed to be a girlfriend, more than P4 P.

Mates headed home around 11 pm, so I decided to head back to my hotel via BATS to see if there was anything worth picking up. BATS was my place of choice pre-Covid, and I did visit when I was here a year ago, that was ladies night and there was a good, although expensive, selection. That night I left with an "old faithful" that I hadn't seen for a few years and she was more than happy for 100 $ in her pocket.

This time around, well it looked like a collection of middle aged mothers, but not a lot in the MILF section. I'm guessing the fact that my beer goggles weren't engaged probably brought me down to reality. There was one girl in her mid 20's who was definitely hot, but I suspect she thought she had a golden pussy, as three guys passed thru conversation with her over the hour I was there, and all walked away! The rest of the women where well past their use by date, a couple that I may have been tempted towards where smokers, which is an automatic strike out for me. One other point, the band, which used to be a definite plus for BATS was pretty mediocre.

So it was a quick couple of drinks and then off empty handed to my hotel. If your not to fussed with regards to age and looks, then there will be something there for you. But this 60 year old tends to be picky, especially when I'm relatively sober, so it was exit stage left for me, or should I say up the stairs.

May head out tonight again, just for the hell of it. Did have my freebie, now graduated, Uni student come across this afternoon for a bit of fun. She may have got married since I last saw her but she still hankers for some bule. So the couple of nights I will have been her for haven't been a complete drought.

One another note, there is activity on WeChat, couldn't be bothered dealing with the possible drama on that on a short trip, but decided to see what the activity level was, and I have been getting pinged on my account since I reset my location - 16 connection requests over a couple of hours.

Travel has a very similar set up as Classic. I hit up classic and then walked to Travel for round 2. The price difference for one hour with a girl is 10,000 rupiah. Less than a dollar. I am glad I came to Jakarta. Pussy is cheap and it is plentiful and I've probably viewed 300+ working girls total between the two places and I don't think I've seen a single one over 25 ish at either of these two places. These girls must get sent away to work somewhere else as they age out.

Yes, the price is comparable between Classic and Travel. However, the primary difference is:

Travel is much smaller than Classic. In Classic you have a choice of two different floors.
In Travel you only have one floor. The number of girls in Travel is adequate. But the choice is less when compared to Classic.

I haven't experienced anything of the sort. I've gone early before the crowd. I've had 4 different girls there from 4 different mamas and they all gave me the exact same price. My water was the same price every time. The mamas haven't asked me for a tip, the girls haven't asked me for a tip, the door people haven't asked me for a tip. No one is trying to get anything extra out of me over what the standard pricing is for services and drinks. The gratuity is built into the drinks. I don't tip the waitresses, you can see the service charge on your check when you cash out to leave.

When I pick a girl, or if a mama brings me a girl I want, I talk to the girl first using google translate and simply say "I want service without a condom" and they either agree or they don't agree. If they say no, I wave goodbye and move to a different area and sit in front of some girls until a mama comes over and I either point to a girl I want or she brings one over. Repeat until I find a girl that will give me bareback sex. I have never had to ask more than 2 girls before one agrees. There is no discussion of additional cost for the service without a condom. It seems a lot of them are just happy to be working. After the session with the girl I give them 100 k rupiah as a tip for giving me bareback sex. They smile and thank me and seem genuinely pleased they were given extra money. I also tip the person that comes to clean up my room after we finish, typically 10,000 Rupiah.

Many have been saying that this place can be a ripoff, the dancers can be deceitful and that it is more about your money than your pleasure and should be avoided. How accurate is that?

Classic Hotel is amazing. I read the forum back 10+ pages. Made notes. Marked places up on my google map to check out while I'm here. Did enough due diligence to have options here, but I think I'll throw it all out the window and just keep repeating at Classic.

I would come back to Jakarta just for this little honey hole if I was buzzing around SEA again in the future. What a delightful place.

You could have gone to Malioboro, its a short walk from the hotel.

Yes, thanks but I forgot to put in my report that I wanted to try one place I haven't been to before and one that I thought would be reliable.

You could have gone to Malioboro, its a short walk from the hotel.

He was within a 10 minute 3 USD Bluebird ride from Kota Indah, Travel, Classic and a whole bunch of other places where he could have had 4 girls for the price of one without giving anything up on looks. Malio is fine but way overpriced imo. You find decent girls there who don't try squeezing 20 shots out of you first?

Had two nights in Jakarta before going to Thailand. Took Eva Air business class and the service was great. I did the evisa and custom form before the trip. At first I had trouble doing the evisa but eventually I was able to complete it. Custom form was very easy. Not sure it helped because I was third off the plane but for whatever reason, the evoa line barely moved. There were only four persons in front of me but everyone in the regular voa line went through before me. It was so bad that by the time I got to baggage claim, the belt had stopped and only four suitcases were next to it. I guess I was next to last to claim my suitcase. Went outside to catch a bluebird taxi but came across a grab lounge. So just took that instead so I wouldn't have to pay cash. I stayed at the Grand Mercury Harmoni which is in a great location for me. Only bad thing, since there is construction on the main street, the bridge that goes across it, isn't there anymore. If you wanted to go across the street to the plaza, you had to walk about a quarter mile down, cross the street, then quarter mile back up to get there. Since my time was short I only visited two places. First was Pablo's cave and resto. This place is far from the hotel, up north near the mall of asia. The facilities were nice with hot and cold jacuzzy and a dry sauna. The cost for the hour was $770,000. What I didn't like about this place, you don't get a live presentation. You pick from a tablet. I picked a very pretty girl off the tablet but when face to face she was bigger than what I expected. The session was fine and I had fun but unless they change and let you pick from a live lineup, I don't think I will return. Second place was Emporium. Last time I was here I had great sessions. There were only about twelve girls in the lineup but there was one that I liked and chose her. The prices here are $1,200.000 and $1. 400.000. Not sure how to tell the difference. The girl I picked was $1. 200.000. Very pretty girl who gave a good session. Both girls gave great BBBJ. What was lacking at both places and why I liked this city so much, was the lack of passion. I still had fun but for a session to be great I need that passion. I got that the last time I was here but unfortunately I didn't pick right this time. Now off to Thailand.

Last night was a visit to the narrow streets off Jl. Hayam Waruk. These are the narrow roads east side of the Mangga Besar Busway bridge. Let's call them then Jl. Kebon Jeruk series. It had been about 10 years since the last visit, so curiosity struck and mild exploration was overdue.

The first visit was the street with the old Stadium. I was seeking a dive bar for a drink and asked around, but to no avail. This was around 9 pm and it seemed pretty quiet, aside from the usual shady characters hanging outside.

Heading north, the next street running parallel resembled Stalingrad circa. 1943. Not much doing apart from some very base massage options. Upon an invite from a mamasan into the kost behind her, I queried about places to get a drink. She said there were none on that road, but a bar on the next parallel street running north. So off I went.

Entering this next street with the Suisse Bakery landmark, options were pretty limited. As other posters have mentioned, Berlian is no longer. The only option was Royal Mas at the end of the culdesac. I popped in there for a beer. Level 1 is set up similar to the KI bars. But it's not quite as loud as Karaoke is the music option rather than blaring happy house Chinese. There were about 10-15 women that were all far left of the bell curve.

Content to settle with a beer, I got chatting with the bar tender. Royal Mas opened up there 2 months ago, having moved from its original location. There's 3 levels. Level 1 is a bar (with overpriced beer), Level 2 are the rooms (350 rb total) for a 1 hour full service massage. Level 3 is a lounge. Interestingly, we got chatting about Stadium. Apparently the original owners have just been issued with a new permit to re-open Stadium at the same site. Although under a different name.

After a beer, I left Royal Mas feeling underwhelmed. Returning to the street one row south I revisited the mamasan from earlier. Curiosity got the better of me. Prices were negotiable and she started at a hefty 500 rb. We agreed on 300 rb. It was a bit more than I thought was standard, but felt close enough. I was later told the mamasan clips the ticket at 70 rb for each session. The remainder goes to the girl.

There are 4 kosts inside. These are also where the women live and they pay their own rent of 2. 1 jt per month. As such, the rooms are very homely. The one I used had family photos hanging on the wall and I interrupted her watching Sinetron. The room was pristine. The lady not so much. However, she was friendly and it felt just like hanging out at someone's place. No English was spoken here, so some Indonesian helps.

Was that Jalan Kebon Jeruk XIX? Front or Behind Antoni Hotel?

Great report. Never heard of these place, but I am tempted to try. Did you feel safe at these place? Were they sketchy or legit? As that area is a rich part of towns.

That is actually a typo, should read the'heaven spa. Yes both spas are certainly legit and not sketchy whatsoever with the'heaven having much nicer rooms and facilities complete with sauna, steam, hot and cold pool. Only negative thing would be that you choose girls from a phone but I've hit 2 for 2 on my visits. The'heaven has another location as well in Kelapa Gading, good time there too, bro found exactly the shape of girl I wanted.

This report is from a short visit in May. Stayed in South Jakarta for a few nights so tried a few of the spas recommended on the forum.

Went to the'Heaven on a Friday night around 8 pm. Girls are shown on a phone, guess you could scout out a bit on their IG first. It was quite busy that night so only had like 5 girls available and only 1 was for FS the rest BJ only. The front desk mama really recommended one girl and since no one else peaked my interest I went with her. I had the same locker number as my chosen girl #36 so we were off to a good start. Up the elevator we went to the next floor and my girl Ella 27 yo was waiting outside the room upon arrival. Neither thrilled nor disappointed by her looks, she immediately began with some GFE by unbuttoning and removing my shirt which was sweet and sexy on her part upon first encounter. This maneuver served as a great reminder that sex appeal often oozes more through someones self-confidence and personality rather than just physical appearance. Onto the massage where she began by getting down to her underwear (which again I took as a sign of confidence or maybe just standard procedure?) and she had a nice, relaxing and sensual touch. After the flip the action began and moved naturally into some passionate DFK, damn this girl was sneaky sexy. Found out FS was not on the table since she was on her cycle and she would not budge on the CBJ. Surprisingly, her talented oral skills were no match for that raincoat. Overall a great experience, was my second visit to the the'heaven and both times left very satisfied. Spa has a nice ambiance, good quality selection and well worth the 700-800 k service. Plan a return trip to Jakarta soon but a message to check if Ella is still there was not answered..

BBFS CIP Sessions. That's why I am going (bare)back to Thailand instead of Indonesia next week...

True I am a partial hypocrite because I never made it to Travel or Classic. But did well in Indonesia on apps like Tinder and TanTan. From reading every post on Jakarta condoms are standard in Classic and Travel (usually). Soy 6 - add 500 baht for BBFS if needed.

This is my respectful and very real opinion.

And thank you Gardelito for the fresh report and pics!

I totally agree with you! Me too, I travel all the time to Thailand Pattaya or Colombia Medellin because all girls accept very easily BBFS + CIP. And YES in Soi 6 Pattaya, usually with 500 bahts more girls accept bareback! 15 years I'm going Pattaya, I always start the day around 5 pm with a girl in Soi 6 for 1000 Bahts and usually I pay her 1500 because no condom! I'm very famous in Soi 6, all the girls know me, I think I fuck girls in all the bars of Soi 6.

Anyone know any Jakarta bars with live music nowadays that aren't in the hotels? I'm thinking something similar to the Top Gun days.

Also, been meaning to check out H Club in SCBD. Anyone checked it out yet? Likely not the best place for picking up, but looks like an experience all the same.

Went to Gold Dragon last week with my new Indonesian wife. Club is in a mall-like building. Younger crowd (I'm 68). Good band. Good atmosphere. This is not a pickup place like Top Gun, but you didn't ask for that. There were tables with just women.
I'm back in the USA now & she went last night with some girlfriends and sent me videos.
Good luck.
