CHIberia

We chatted a few months ago, he reached out when I added him to my favorites, but I wasn't planning a trip to NY for a few months. I still have his number, but I'm worried about texting because his account is down. Tried to see if he just rebranded but I didn't find anything on a quick search.

Thanks for the help. I actually usually stay there (along with Sorell). It's literally around the corner from the sauna. Not the best breakfast, and they do a pretty bad job of air conditioning (all the souvenir chocolate I bought melted!). But I like the location, and not just for the sauna. Those might be last-minute prices, but pricing is different if you're planning ahead. The suite prices are a lot more, and I can't do those tiny standard rooms at starting prices. Booking a month out is over $500 a night right now. For me, it's not about affordability. I can afford the room at $500 rates. It's about the principle. The idea that I can pay half as much for a suite in Barcelona with a comparable sauna makes my decision a lot easier. Instead of going 2-3 times a year, I'm probably going to visit once this year.

Oh it's definitely not the same venue, just the same owner. They also own the old Circuit. That front lounge at Circuit could be a possibility, or they could lease out a different venue altogether. Bobby Love's isn't going anywhere

I was there last August. Visited twice. Was not nearly as bad as people are making it out to be. There was a noticeable dropoff, but instead of finding 5-6 guys I was interested in, it was more like 3-4. So there's definitely still fun to be had, and it's super clean. My only issue lately has been finding a hotel for a relatively reasonable price. I can't justify $500 USD a night for a suite that went for $300 pre-pandemic.

I heard he's working with the owner Bobby Love's. I'm pretty sure this is accurate. He's also just moving to Chicago as we speak.

iirc a friend mentioned traveling to Cuba and using Canadian prepaid debit cards and things went pretty smoothly

The way we're positioned, I think a nearby suburb could also be an option. Boystown might not work, but who knows? I'd actually be very willing to invest/partner with Matt. If anyone has his contact info, please let me know

I have such a hard time categorizing the Horseshoe and @mosphere as strip clubs. They have Gogo dancers. No nudity, no private areas. Very public "lap dances"

There isn’t, but I’ve been tempted to reach out to ownership and see if they want someone to manage Chicago

Anyone do the November event? Curious about Zack...

Been there a couple of times. There are 4 clubs in total. 3 of which are right next to each other, and a fourth across the river. 69 is probably the best, but I would tie it with Wet Dreams next door. It's smaller and has a more metropolitan feel. People say the dances are pushier, but they weren't in my experience. The third club near 69 (forget the name)... don't bother, it's empty and had a couple of mediocre dancers. The one across the river is pretty nice, not nearly as busy and the dancers are a small step down from 69/Wet Dreams.

You know, I was nice about it, there was no need for you to be a jerk. But here you are. "Twink" is a slang descriptor, not a stereotype. Saying "old people think all young people are twinks" is a stereotype. Also, I mentioned my experience before asking you to respect it. Not the other way around. It's always helpful when posters have just a bit of reading comprehension Let's not with the self-righteous sanctimony, buddy.

I visited a few months ago. I didn't mention that the place was overrun with twinks at the time. However, on the two days I visited, there were a lot more twinks than early this year. I'm in my 30's. I'm not older, so maybe let's not stereotype. I don't automatically think a twink is a young person. I know the difference. Let's please not pretend this is a perception thing. We were there on different days, there were different guys. Let's leave it at that instead of discounting a person's experience. Thank you. With that said, I'll be there most likely this winter, I'll try and stop by and give an update

Hey that's my old thread. I'll answer as much as I can here. Berlins has no gay strip clubs. There is a MAJOR gay club scene with literally every type of fetish available, I think it makes strip clubs a little unnecessary. LAB.Oratory nightclub is infamous. Expect to have sex and definitely witness all kinds of sex, depending on the theme that night, including fisting, pissing and scat. I went on "jock" night, where the dress code was jockstraps or athletic gear. That's probably the tamest theme. I think a couple of clubs have live sex shows, and there are frequently annual events that have them. I believe one of the gay saunas might. Escort scene is also surprisingly thin, though I did meet a fantastic Belami actor. As far hustler bars go: DO NOT GO. It's not safe. There used to be three. One of them was relatively on the safer side. It closed down along with another. I think Tobasco is still standing. You will likely get robbed, or worse. The hustlers are all Turkish migrants, and they are straight (not gay for pay). I went, inadvertently thinking it was the safer club that remained open. I was lucky enough to hold my own, only because I pass for Turkish. I drink my beer and bolted. Saunas are co-ed and naked. Vabali sauna is amazing. Worth it, especially if the weather is good. Never seen so many dicks in one place. I personally absorbed as much of the city as I could on an e-bike. Very bike friendly. The zoo was nice, the museum island was amazing, and Elefant was a nice place to get schnitzel

Not really, they're flying coach 😜
