Wow bro, I think now you are getting the hang of it... good for you.. and just like the Carpenters song ... "Its only just began .....!"

And I am not talking about that goal you just scored but I am referring to your breakthrough in landing many more such deals! I predict.. soon you will have to service about 2 different ones everyday and try your best to avoid too much attentions from the rest...and maybe in a week you will probably sleep in your own bed for less than 3 nights!

one night I was in the wrong kind of karaoke. I was so drunk I was not even aware of the time, and I think I sent a msg to anh deptrai...I still fell a bit stupid for that. he's the senior resident expert on Hanoi though, so it's only natural people ask him

the scammer in that karaoke joint rally managed to make me angry. angry enough to scare them. they probably thought I was totally crazy, drunk and dangerous, as I was so drunk I probably must have threatened them, and told weird stories about my friends in the police in my broken vietnamese. So they let us go with no problem, paid only a couple of 100K dong in the end.

Huh... without the tones and the vowels, hard to decipher the silver bullet quote from bro DT... but translating from English, wouldnt it be more accurate to say "Em chi muon lam anh yeu em thoi, yeu roi, em sap triet tai anh, dung khong?"

“West Lake el-cheapo ST BBS”

Directions for this place:

Go to West lake, pass by the Sofitel and the Sheraton; as soon as you have passed by the Sheraton, turn left and & pass by Sheraton’s second entry. Go on and take the third street to the left (after the Golden resort). Proceed in this street for 300 m, and then the street name changes to: Ngo 52 Duong To Ngoc Van.

Then you have arrived and will see some men sitting on the street in front of houses (former small hotels? ) and waving you in. And then you just mention bum-bum and settle for the price and choose your girl.

Prices: as I said: it should be around 300. 000 – 400. 000 VND for short time! “

The above was posted recently on another forum on the Vietnam – Hanoi Thread and I was curious to check out validity and more exact location during a short Hanoi stopover. This also because I have not contributed much to this forum for a long while.

Since I had rented a bike for the next 24 hours, I proceeded to ride to the location of the Sheraton and followed the directions as closely as I could.

I started to doubt the directions when I could not find the “Golden Resort”.

I went up and down that road just pass the Sheraton’s 2nd entry point twice.

Finally, I decided to do a road count and take the third street after the entrance of the Sheraton while ignoring smaller turn offs and there it was – “Duong To Ngoc Van” road!

Halfway down that road, the men sitting under open umbrellas outside small “hotels” waved away at me as I rode by.

So HERE ARE THE NEW DIRECTIONS AS CLEAR AS I CAN WRITE THEM:

"Turn off the main road toward the second entrance of the Sheraton (coming from the Sofitel).

Go past that 2nd entrance.

Go past the Fraser's Suite building.

Go past the road where there is a signboard for the Ho Tay Resort.

Take the next turning left (3rd road after 2nd entrance of Sheraton). That is Duong To Ngoc Van Road."

(I have photos of the landmarks mentioned here but I am too lazy to post them on a photo site and then create the links here)

Continuation of this FR,
I did not want to partake nor ask for a viewing as I dislike ST action “on premise” myself.

The style of this place had great similarities to the set up of the ST places in “Doson near Haiphong” which I reported on previously.

http://sbf.today/2293674-post1102.html

My objective was to locate the BBS places for other cheongsters looking for affordable ST in Hanoi and operating without a local “guide” or senior brother because no one is available at hand to help.

The result is that I did not determine prices as posted nor check out the quality of the girls. It was also quite early at 2pm and I did not think the best talents would be on show as at that time. The FR that I got the lead from mentioned very young talent shown to him.

My take is that if a foreigner came without speaking Vietnamese, those prices would be valid. Going by what was being charged in Doson, my own belief is that prices should be somewhere in the region of 150,00 to 300,000 for ST maximum.

Perhaps a Viet speaking “cheongster” will be able to verify my “speculation”. I am sure, bro Deptrai4 & other seniors knows this place well too.

At the end of this road, you have a kind of restaurant and just before that, a modern terrace restaurant called “Phuong Quyen” with a large 2nd floor terrace overlooking the Lake.

My thoughts are that if you are going with a taxi, you should give the name of this restaurant (Phuong Quyen), and the name of the road “Duong To Ngoc Van” and let him take you there and drop off at the restaurant. You will have passed the BBS places when you arrive at the restaurant.

Go to the restaurant to enjoy a beer and the view of the Lake to shake off the taxi driver.
(This because I dislike the leeching behaviors of taxi drivers most places and their commission demanding ways!)

After your drink by which time you should be rid of him (hopefully), you walk back to the BBS places and partake of the choices available at the best prices without commission!

My nokia map for Hanoi (as for Ho Chi Minh City) does not have up to date road details unlike the excellent details for much of the rest of Asia!

Nevertheless, I was able to lock in the location and coordinates for other mongers to use. 21.0691 degrees N and 105.8241 degrees E.

Have fun and post your FRs!

I'm wondering if anyone has new information or recently has went to Oasis MP? I think maybe it is a little bit expensive? Of course I don't mind paying a little more if it is worth it. Maybe it is similar to Sakura Club? Does anyone like this place? I will be staying very close by.

Last time in Hanoi I went to La Thanh but only thought it was a little good. Girl looked bored at me the whole time. Like she wanted to be somewhere else. And I think she was sick because she kept sniffling! Overall not best experience. I was there early in the day though. Does anyone know maybe that it gets better later at night? Or same throughout the day?

Thank you everyone! I look forward to sharing my adventures!

I went to Oasis last week. The charges for use of the facilities + massage was 170K. Not sure whether that is more expensive or cheaper than other places as I'm relatively new here. The facilities were OK to me, not fantastic but not too bad. The massage is in a private room with a table, but there is a window.

The girl I had was quite good looking but attitude wise not so good, also looked quite bored and also kept sniffling! (Any chance it's the same girl?) Asked for 300K tips for HJ. I nego-ed to 250K, but after that the whole time she just black face.
