First, let me say, I am not a troll. I am a single guy, 37 yrs. old and going to Paris and Rome for 2 weeks this spring. My question is this, if I am fortunate enough to meet a young lady who is not adverse to spending some time in my room, will I be charged for two people the next day, or do the front desk people even notice? I don't want problems.

I doubt that the hotels will appreciate you bringing in prostitutes for a few hours.

It depends on how good-looking she is. If she is hideous or large, expect to be charges for at least two, maybe four. If she is hot, you won't get charged at all and will sometimes get breakfast for free. Hope this helps.

Honestly, I don't think anyone at the front desk will notice. But, besides the remarks that you are going to get about practicing safe sex, the other things that you should be careful about are your room key, wallet, money, camera, tickets and passport. If there is a safe in your room, be safe and use it -- put your valuables in the safe before you lose your head.<BR><BR>

Its grossly unfair for people to give flack to Ken. He asked an honest question. He's an adult, and the female that would join him would have to be consenting. What's the difference in having a one night stand at home after you meet someone in a bar, or doing the same in another country, but staying in a hotel room? I know many people that have checked into a hotel room for the night just to do what Ken hopes will happen. I can't believe that there are Fodorites who have not had one night stands in their own homes. Just remember what you did when you were in college and in your twenties before you start making jabs.

I like Leslie's response about putting all your valuables away in the hotel safe. Very wise and good advice. And, if you do get charged more, maybe it will be worth it! Free Love sometimes comes at a price.

I've never had a one night stand. So Leslie don't assume that the rest of us on this site are as slutty as you have been in your past.

Leslie Strauss - thanks for broadcasting your escapades on the net! Everyone has your email, next you'll be scrawling your number on bathroom stalls.<BR>Hey don't give ken a hard time he just wants to experience the culture of europe.

Hi Ken,<BR>the charge of the room is a minor problem. Usually as a single u have to pay the whole room, except maybe a small charge for breakfast.<BR>I'm worried about the goods you may leave in your room - if they are stolen,is much more expensive than to charge anything else, and all the stress with police, embassy, creditcards and so on.<BR>No girls on your room please ! My advice as traveller with experience in russia.<BR>Shain/Germany/D&uuml;sseldorf

To whomever responded directly to me about my past. I have nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, at least I at least am using my name and email address instead of hiding behind a bunch of x's. Also, I never said one way or the other actually.

Leslie - sweet muffin, its ok baby cakes. Nobody here crackin on your past but Mr. Strauss may need an explanation.

Ken, You will have no problem at all.<BR>Being discreet will get you far.<BR><BR>To some of the posters here: who has said anything about prostitutes? Why would you assume that? And even if you assume sex-for-$, why didn't you think Ken might be the one charging? <BR><BR>That is all -- you may now resume listening to the Dr. Laura radio show.

uhhh uhhh uhhh maybe I didn't do it, depends on what your definition of IS IS! no need to backtrack sugarpie

x's, Mr. Strauss is my father. <BR><BR>x's, do you have a problem with your sexuality? What goes on between consenting adults in the privacy is of no business of mine or yours.

Well Leslie, thank you for coming to my defense...you really took some flak for it and I'm sorry to see that. No, I wasn't thinking of prostitutes, I have met women who seem to enjoy being with me without cash involved and you know, the unexpected sometimes happens. It never hurts to be prepared! Thanks for advice.

Leslie,isn't it amazing? the way a person is considerate enough to read a post, think of a response, post it and then feel they have to defend themselves from the insults of other loser posters who have nothing to contribute but all the time in the world it seems to roam this forum and attack people.<BR>

TRAVELER I think Leslie was talking to you too when she made a comment about how pathetic it is to use ficticious names!!!!!

You, who attack other posters are a sad lot.Live and let live. Your behavior shows you have sad lives.<BR><BR>

Hey dude, chill brother, Ken the stud man is just tryin' to love the world and experience the culture. Come on man, let live you know. <BR>FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD FOSTER WE HAVE A 37 YEAR OLD MAN WHO NEEDS TO ASK THAT TYPE OF A QUESTION!?! HE'S 37 - GROW UP! NEED PICKUP LINES TOO? HERES ONE FOR YA<BR><BR>IS YOUR DADDY A THIEF....

Ken maybe your mama would know the answer.
