Precisely. I did a count 2 days back. From June to Last weekend, I'm there total for 16 trips. The only thing I miss in BKK is just the showers. Else, I'm fine with Batam in all aspects.

I checked the price and when they price it between S$104 to S$135 per night stay,its only common sense this place will constantly be booked off during weekends. Its only 5 to 7 mins walk to Nagoya Hill Mall,around the Spa Secret area.

This place has what most hotel has,except swimming pool. But it has a lot of other stuffs most hotels doesnt have,like a kitchen? I guess the whole feel will be like staying a chalet. Oh,it also has wifi too. Surprisingly,there's a 24hr front desk and provide free shuttle service as well,hehehe...

I think this is going to be a hit...for 2 buddy travelers to Batam.

As we know that Nagoya hill mall has many eateries coffee shop like Oldtown, EA café, Baresto café, Kangen café, Coffee story, Bistro Godiva coffee, etc, all these places provide free wifi. So if you go for your tea break/lunch/dinner you can save on internet charges. Also make full use of any free wifi services in the hotel too by downloading any info from the internet that you need.

Sometimes if you do not want to buy mobile data, you can always go near to those places where you have ever used wifi before as it will auto login without the need to key in password.

This is one of my weakest ring. Becos i dont really surf the net using mobile phone unless i am on google translate.

I agree with you,many food places,eateries,even massage shops provide free wifi,hehehe...almost all hotels in Batam will have wifi.

There is a few options where you can save on lodging :

a) Buy hotel vouchers at KAHA, thanks to bro nono for recommendation. Mostly applicable to 3 star hotel and above.

b) Join membership to get a classic card to enjoy 10% off the room rate, e.g. 510k-51k=459k approximate = 460k in Formosa hotel. So far I only know Formosa have this membership scheme, do any bros know if other hotel also have membership ?

c) Check the website like booking.com or hotel.com to compare offer price. After that call the hotel to ask the hotel walk in rate.

The following methods above will definitely be cheaper to book a hotel room than the walk in price.

a) Kaha not necessary cheaper,the trick is ALWAYS compare prices from various online hotel booking site versus the prices from Kaha. Kaha is at most time were on a fix rate using Indonesia rupiah. So exchange rate may some time favors online hotel booking rate (or vice versa).

b) Joining membership is pretty tricky. A lot of calculation is needed to shortlist what I truly need (eg,FREE taxi ride,free laundry wash,FREE night stay,FREE room upgrade etc). Today when i stay in Formosa Hotel,i am paying deluxe room price (460k weekday,510k weekend) and getting family (1 queen bed + 1 super single bed) or junior suite. Kaha is pricing a deluxe room at 475k rupiah on weekdays and 525k on weekends. But becos this does not applies to every member or guest and it is the reason why after using Kaha for nearly 2 years,i dare not tell the public that Kaha is better/cheaper.

Take a look at Hotels.com giving one almost similar offer as with Formosa hotel membership promo,i think they gives a better deal in terms of their point collection to qualify for a free night stay. Joining hotel membership is only good if one constantly stick to a particular hotel.

Use the walking map provided by nono to look for the joint.

Nowaday,due to a more heated competition,commission for taxi drivers can range as high as 100k to 350k rupiah for a booking girl.

I often pass bro xXFreedomXx's map to newbie to help them navigate Batam,as below :

A more detail map will be on my signature to navigate around Batam but most couldnt find the time to read. I am coming out with a NEW way of navigation soon,hehehe...so those who were to read my later post will know what to do. A lot of work is needed and I am in the midst of constructing it.

All the joints in fact can be accessed by walking from Goldbird - Memory - New berry - Happy massage 8 - Indah2 - Bunga - Permata Indah following the sequence.

But for newbie in order to familiarise the location of the booking joint can follow experience bros once and try to remember the way to the joints.

I completely agree with all your words from the above quote.

a) Many small savings that one save could amount up to a big saving. Take for example if I have a gold card in Formosa hotel, I get 20% discount off the normal price at King's Massage. If one day massage a few sessions for 500k, there will be a saving of 100k.

It would take any bro around 30 nights of stay in Formosa hotel to get the 20% off (Gold membership card). Do note that Vienna Restaurant and Tea Story has silently increase their menu prices by about 20%. When will it be King Massage turn? I am still waiting with my fingers crossed.

The percentage discount were mainly gimmicks to make their guest/s feel that they are paying cheaper than normal but the fact is,they are paying MORE until they complete about 30 nights of stay in the hotel. And when they complete the 30 nights of stay,they will then get 20% off,meaning only then are they paying the 'Normal' price (for in-hotel restaurant food),hehehe...

Side note : Vienna Restaurant used to have 20% discount before the membership offer starts,today they not only took away the 20% discount,they had also add in another 20% extra too.

example 2 hours costs 180k but 1 hour cost 100k.

Everyone is different bro,i prefer to stay in one massage shop to have 1 hour massage by one single massage girl,and then go for another massage girl to have yet another 1 hour massage until i tried out nearly all their massage girls in that particular shift,hehehe...thats how i can define which massage places in Batam is better or worse.

I cannot rate a massage shop if it is good or not-good by only trying out ONE or maybe 2 girls in it. i can ONLY rate a particular girl in THAT particular massage shop and NOT the whole massage shop (unless I have tried around 50% of their total workforce,hehehe..). Have to be fair to the few other girls which could be good whereby I have not tried, right?

It applies for booking joints too. But becos i have only one dick i cant do what i do in massage shops I dwelled in,but what i can do is i can have a group of perhaps 10+ bros swarming into a booking joint in a period of a month or so to sweep up most of their girls and they later share with me an FR,hence i am able to better rate a particular booking joint a little more fairly (note: the poison and meat theory still applies in this case).

Remember the 6 apple story?

When the 5 or others have other fruits like orange,pear etc,i believe they will be willing to share them with me too. At the end of the day,i may be getting more than 5 different types of fruits,with getting more than 5 different tastes and colors. Not forgetting the friendship within it.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away,hehehe...

I have been sowing seeds in this thread since day 1 i am here. In other words,i have been sharing out 'apples' since day 1 i am in here. So it does make sense that i can now harvest many kinds of other different fruits beside just apple in Batam,hehehe...plus making many friends who are willing to share with me their sources of the best.

My main objective here is on the 1st page of this thread.
(i dont think i need to put a link to page 1 of this thread,hehehe...i'm joking)

Cool!

[ilovepussys]

Hey good day guy. Just check is there any gal in holiday inn? If got what the rate there. Does anyone just hook up with the local in shopping mall?

[tomcat007]

It editor be farnie if Holiday Inn is only full of guys. So the answer to your question will be there are actually girls at Holiday Inn.

[AhPui8]

Commission for taxi drivers can range as high as 100k to 350k rupiah for a booking girl.

Fuck. Now we all should know why our backside is screwed.

350K is more than $30 sgd. Where is all this 30 sgd come from? From our pocket lah. Papi jack up the price for the taxi drivers to earn.

B - not so outgoing type , rarely seeks out customers due to either shy , having huge ego or low confidence. Always waiting for customers to approach him even when days are bad. Nevertheless his sales will always be below A.

Some might say he is not hardworking enough but for me it's more of a personality issue.

Good illustration,but if u knew to make comparison base on salemanship,u may've heard of smthg call 'durian drop frm the tree/sky'. And in the entertainment world,saleman B could've other plus-pts,like mayb he's more handsome-looking? He's those 'Heaven's son' aka Tian Gong Kia 天公仔？ Salesman A sounds like a rogue,but nt all cust will like a rogue.Sm may prefer saleman's B shyness,lack of confidence which sm time may portray him as a more honest,sincere person. Wat i'm tryin to say is,sm time,other factors of a person cld've stood a chance to even the playin field & everyone shldn't be limit by a certain standard set by anyone.

In tis case was abt setting the 3 shot rule or be expecting unlimited bonks. Or in the most recent comparison case,expectin btm to be like bkk,vice versa or btm to be like SG/viet or other countries in the world.

Tat wldn't b fair.

I bring my bkk mode to bkk,i bring my China mode when i go China & i bring along my btm mode when i visit btm. Tat way i'll enjoy myself better than expecting pineapple to taste like apple.

I've went about 18 trips in total liao and till these date I had never follow that 3 shots limit bull except on 2 occasions when the cewek is experiencing abdominal pain after 3 shots in which I had blamed myself for getting too rough.

I'd rephrase again,frm 3+ yrs ago,frm bein newbie to the current,a more season choingster in btm,i was not once bound by any 3-shot limitation frm bking girls. If it ever exist,it's cld be either u sux big time frm the girl's point,or the girl's tryin to take advantage of u (bullyin u). Or mayb like in yr scenario,u gave her a chance. It'd be up to an individual's own judgement & lvl of chiongin exp to handle an occurrence.

I'm the type if my girl is comfortable,i'll be comfortable. While I'm the dry my sperm bag til it turn dry prunes kind of chiongster, i'm also a man who wld like to see my girl's pussy turned into a musical fountain. I'm not jus havin sex w a girl who's keepin me company for more than 12 hrs,i'm also makin love w a female companion.

Yes, I had good time. I am not here for girls, but for work and nature sightseeing.
HOWEVER, believe it or not, I had a wonderful night to remember with a Japanese lady met on a small cruise boat. BP hit also here, ehehe

That was NOT planned of course. Baby face and body, I thought she was 22-23yo, but she told me she is 31
The ass was round to die for (and for an Asian girl that's not common; they are usually very flat there). She travels alone as me, and, exactly as me, she was very happy to have the opportunity to spend the night in warm arms instead of alone.

I invited her out for dinner and she made the gesture to share the bill. Not something we could see in Batam with Indo ladies, always eager to suck our money at any opportunity.

I love J-ladies! Submissive and open to any kinky game to please the man. Iconic when we went to shower after the first round. Soapy massage and service like in an expensive spa.
I could not sleep. She was holding me all the time.
