So true. It's the privacy issue. No matter how much you enjoy what you do--and your client's company--your home is your private sanctuary.
I like to think most guys are good and respect boundaries --but even risking that one psycho who shows up at your door--or worse--publishes your personal address somewhere just isn't worth it. BrookeI was just wondering what venues other guys found most preferable for meeting a lady. I would much, much rather meet a lady in a tiny studio apartment on the UES or in the village or something than to meet her in a $400/night hotel in midtown. Those places just make me uncomfortable and it tends to ruin the experience. This has nothing to do with the hourly rate that an SP is charging. It's just that I don't generally, when traveling, stay in such expensive hotels, so when I meet an SP in one, I'm instantly uncomfortable, even before I meet her. Seriously, I know parking garages in midtown where even the attendants are snooty. Please, ladies, there's more than midtown!
Is nosy neighbors and attentive doormen. If too many different guys are going to the same apartment for short stays it can throw up a red flag. Some gals rent apartments and share their time there either separately or together. It's not unheard of. But it must be kept discreet.
Hotels can be just as bad with attentive security (most hotels have security cameras in hallways now). If too many people are traipsing in and out of the same room it can be bad for the girl.
That's why we need decriminalization of the profession.
We muddle through the best we can. I can understand the reasoning behind hotels vs. apts though. It's one or two nights and you are gone whereas an apt invites strings and attachments that the ladies may not want.

I just realized you weren't looking for a place. My bad.
I totally agree on midtown--although some of the bigger hotels do offer more privacy. Like the Radisson--the elevators are before the front desk, so it offers both the client and the girl some anonymity. It's a nice place, but not exactly luxury.
One of my favorites.
