For me, it's the expectations of who I am seeing. If I'm paying $400 and up, I would like to visit a provider at a 4 star hotel. If I'm seeing a $20 backpage girl, then it is expected that she will be staying at a motel 6. The 4 star hotels are very discreet, convenient, and have a lot of resources while the motel 6 or a low budget motel is the opposite.
I too feel uneasy if a provider is staying at a low budget motel because more than likely, the doors are outside, less security cameras, and the environment attracts the crowds that I do not like. For example, you may have pimps walking around the area, cops doing surveillance, the showers make all sorts of noises when turning the hot water on, and people of no class just hanging around outside doing who knows what.
I prefer a higher end hotel because of the professional crowds, the discretion it provides, and the amenities it has. Some higher end hotels are like mini malls, with plenty of stores, restaurants, large lobbies, and all of the amenities you can possibly want. I also like enjoy looking at the building itself, some higher end hotels are very beautiful to look at.
When it comes down to it, I make sure she has great reviews first. The quality of the hotels are not a major concern as long as it fits the fee. For example, I don't mind going to a Holiday Inn if the fee the provider charge is $400. She does not have to stay at a more expensive brand hotel. However, I do mind if I'm paying $400 and she's staying at a motel 6. I do not like to put myself into those types of situations (the crowds, the LE, and pimps). The more upscale a hotel is, then the less likely it is to attract those kinds of negativity.
