If a lady offers incall, I'd assume that her fee includes the cost of the room.  There are times that a lady who does not normally host will do so, for the convenience of a guy that can't get a room.  In those cases, he should pick up the tab for it.

Regarding the example of the swanky room, I guess that's more of a coin toss.  It would seem that he should be willing to pony up, or recognize that you're going to need to boot him out at the bell, because you have a room to pay for.  

some input that I agree with on the cost of the incall. So I'll ride on his .01 on that.

But on the swanky hotel room, in my mind the request changes it from an incall to an OUTcall situation. He's asking for you to come to a particular location - so he should carry the freight for the room or provide complete reimbursment for the cost of the room.

and that's my .01.

In regards to incall, no matter what the situation you should always walk away with a good feeling. If you are barely going to clear a certain amount and it does not feel good to you then do not do it.  I myself travel here and there, but always make sure I am covered.  

It would be wise to always evaluate what your expenses are versus what you are earning.  I say always try to make sure you see more than one person for that day to make it worth your while.  

In the case of someone requesting you stay in a certain upscale hotel, then yes that is on him.  At the end of the day you are in control because it is your business.

In general, when I meet a lady at her incall, I expect that the price of the room is included.  If I pick the location, it is no longer incall, so I pay for the room.

If you have to go out of your way to get a particular hotel just for one client, he would be a smuck not to pay for it. All the girls I have ever seen had one set price that covered their expenses, or at the very least they had an insert on the rates page that said, "Add 50 for incalls."

I don't think it is out of line, just adjust your rate structure in your ads. Also be careful when using really high end business hotels, because many of us can't go there. It is very likely we will run into someone we know, who is really there on business LOL.

the playpen.  Most ladies will see more than one guy in a day, thus reducing the overhead per date.

If the lady is coming to see me in my hotel room, then obviously I am paying for the room and it would be outcall for her.
