Just got back from Montréal a few days ago. Always a good time. I only made it out to the strip clubs the Saturday night of my visit. I checked out both Campus & Stock (each will hand-stamp if you ask, so you can leave & come back the same night).
Both were pretty busy and entertaining but the dancers at Stock were more my type looks-wise. I could definitely see the Campus men appealing to some customers, though. The Stock dancers were generally a lot more aggressive in trying to get me to go in the back for some private dances.
I did go in the back for a few at Stock with handsome, hairy Fredi (Freddie?), who wasn’t aggressive out front (but friendly in the back!). He’s not on their website but he does show up briefly in another dancer’s video sample (23 seconds into Gatuso’s). https://www.stockbar.com/en
Gatuso & Santiago each gave me their pitches to go in the back, and I suspect either would have been a lot of fun. I was just getting tired & didn’t want to go crazy with spending on my first night of the trip. (I thought I’d be back the next night, which unfortunately didn’t work out.)
Bbuck was also there and looking HOT too. He had some facial stubble and was quite acrobatic during his turn on the pole. I think he also had some chest hair (a plus for me). 
I didn’t notice much panhandling or apparent junkies in the Village that Saturday night, despite what I’ve seen in some other Montréal posts on here. 
The ArriveCAN and U.S. MPC (Mobile Passport Control) apps each made getting through the Montréal airport faster. (MPC is only for U.S. passport holders, I believe.)
The 747 bus into town was packed on Saturday night but had plenty of room Tuesday morning going to the airport. If you buy a 3-day pass for C$22, that’ll let you ride the 747 ($11 one-way if you only buy a ticket for that) as well as the metro unlimited for 3 days. For the 747 back, I bought a 1-day anywhere-Zone-A pass for $11, and that includes use of the airport bus.
(And besides being a quick, affordable way to get around, the Metro seems to have a lot of hot men riding it most of the time. Including some hot Middle Eastern guys in case you like them, which I do.)
The botanical garden is wonderful as ever, but I would eat elsewhere unless you’re a hardcore vegetarian or vegan. Their restaurant has gone all-veggie & I didn’t really care for the items I tried. 
   As for money: The exchange rate is great right now if you’re American. Hardly anywhere takes Discover, so make sure you have Visa or Mastercard.

It's less about being there to view others and more about enjoying being comfortable with yourself while you're there.

I once booked a gay hotel with a clothing optional policy, many years ago, in Fort Lauderdale. BIG mistake. 
Nothing in that pool that I wanted to see.

Yes, and a clothing optional pool, with a men-only policy.  There are a few hotels like that in Ft Lauderdale and Palm Springs.

There's much more to catering to a gay clientele than that. 

I don't really even know how a hotel would cater to gay men? Douching stations in the shower? 🚿

Manhattan is too expensive for sleazy hotels with hookers in the lobby. The 1970s are over. Besides ....Everyone's on their phone looking for dick now

The Paul is definitely not a fancy place, nor is it the type of hotel I’d choose to spend my vacation at.  But it’s decent, and one of the few hotels left in NYC that doesn’t require a keycard to use the elevators.  That makes it perfect for the debauchery that the original poster is looking for.

Please tell me you book the "bunk bed" room.
120 sq feet?….holy fuck that’s tight!

I don't care about them judging haha I meant more about the convenience of it all. If I want to host a pump and dump then I would have to call reception several times an hour...

Hey all,
For new yorkers: Is there a hotel in Manhattan (chelsea/hudson/HK/midtown) that's friendly to visitors? I don't want to come down to bring trade up because they need a keycard or whatever. Anyone can recommend a hotel friendly to hookups?

I have been to this one - https://www.workmanslunch.com/

Price increases to accommodate an inflationary environment in itself is not the issue, but it's how a business entity goes about properly notifying their clientele about it. The problem with many of these independent masseurs is that they are often completely clueless on how to handle business end of things, with setting proper client expectations being one of the most crucial elements. A client being told of such a price increase (with an explanation) *before* an appointment is booked makes a world of difference for a client's overall experience and so many of these masseurs just do not understand this. Most clients would accept the increase and understand the justification behind it, and some that do not wish to accept the increase can simply refuse the newly increased price. 

You dodged a bullet.  I've had one or two completely flip on me when I asked them to confirm the price and then got a number that was higher than their ad.  Like, sir, you wrote your ad, not me. 
It's gotten to the point where I don't even ask anymore, I just give what the ad says...and whatever the tip they earn based on service provided.  

I agree with jamie21 that you dodged a bullet. A masseur should have his business end of things together and learn to set proper expectations for clients. He lost your business by passive-aggressively upcharging you $20 without any reason and you simply asked about the price difference. His loss. 

I think you dodged a bullet. Prices should be clear, but if there’s a mistake and you asked for clarification and got a response like that then that tells me he’s probably not the kind of guy you’d want to see. 

If you are looking for a very well built ripped hung masc jock …. You will need to keep looking as my interaction with him did not offer any of those criteria.. he is lean and muscles are there but no where like they look with the enhanced  photo editing in his pic and only the 1 guy and it’s not the masc hot one … 

It’s only the one guy now and not 4hands. He wants $300 for a 60min untrained massage 😂
