Sandman?!? Why did you go and do that?

I tour five months of the year (mostly in hotels) without issue. There are moves to remain discreet like meeting on a mezzanine or parking level, meeting outside, going for drinks or dinner first. I think most hotels are aware sex workers book their rooms. One time the concierge even recognized me and I still had no issues. It’s not zero risk to work at a carded hotel but in my opinion it’s generally fine provided we use discretion.

I’ve also worked at many Airbnb rentals and feel there is a much higher degree of risk in these. Airbnb is explicitly anti-sex worker for one and there is a much higher degree of scrutiny on visitors, noise and towels. Some locations are easier to work in than others but there is still a risk to the provider that they will be asked to leave to property or lose their account altogether.

Being recognized can be an issue but these days wearing a mask is considered fine in public, so that’s an option. As is wearing a scarf and hat in winter.

I think most sex workers are aware of the needs for discretion and choose locations carefully so will provide instructions on how to connect safely.

Did they do this to the Airport Sandman off Dixon and the other one on Dixie/Matheson?
 
Book the extra social time for a drink beforehand. Sandman is great because Chop (attached) has a great bar for a social cocktail.

I know its one of those "easy to say", but building a bit of rapport makes the next step infinitely better, imo.

A lady from Toronto passed through the Ottawa/Hull area last year, and I saw her at an Air B&B. She came back several months later and I saw her at a downtown hotel. She told me that the Air B&B owner had a camera facing the door of the unit, and after seeing several men come and go, threw her out.

There are several hotels further east from the Sandman on Hunt Club, and I'm not aware of any of them having carded elevators. So the Sandman will just lose this business to their competitors down the road.

Their loss.

Very possible, but again like what was said before there is always way around the card issue. I have never been to the Sandman, but another provider was at a different hotel in the eastern part of Ottawa that required the card.....we just messaged before while I was in my car and before entering the hotel and I walked right by the front desk and to the elevators. There she was at 7 am looking like she was just coming from a work out in the gym.....love that look.....like we had discussed what I was wearing and what she was wearing before she gave me the nod and I gave the nod back as I approached. She grabbed my hand and whispered in my ear....."I hope it is you?" I just said "If it is not me....then someone else is about to be a very lucky guy for 2 hours!"...as she pushed the button of the elevator and we went up. No problems, no issues pretty slick.....going down no card needed. Not at that time.....not sure if things have changed?
HB69.....was here?!?!?!

I think there’s a bit of a misconception that hotels introducing keycard elevators automatically means they’re trying to discourage working ladies. In reality, it’s becoming increasingly standard, particularly at higher-end properties and in larger cities. It’s primarily a security measure, not some elaborate conspiracy to put us all out of business. Lol.

I’ve exclusively worked out of hotels, and I genuinely wouldn’t say hotels have an issue with working ladies as a whole. In my experience, if you’re quiet, respectful, polite to the staff, mindful of other guests and not causing problems, they generally leave you alone. Let’s be realistic, though. Hotel employees aren’t oblivious. They’ve seen just about everything, and I highly doubt we’re presenting them with some groundbreaking mystery to solve. Where the keycard situation becomes problematic is the suggestion that ladies can simply meet every gentleman in the lobby. For someone seeing one or two gentlemen throughout the day? Sure, that’s reasonably manageable. But for a higher-volume lady seeing 10–15 gentlemen over the course of a day, it’s an entirely different situation.

Walking through the lobby repeatedly, greeting a different gentleman every hour and escorting him upstairs is hardly the definition of discretion. At that point, you’re practically on a first-name basis with the entire front desk, and they’re probably more familiar with your daily schedule than you are. Lol. There’s also the issue of privacy for both parties. Not every gentleman is comfortable being greeted in a busy hotel lobby, and not every lady wants to repeatedly draw attention to herself or her guests. I think there’s an important distinction between a hotel being tolerant of working ladies and a hotel being comfortable with a constant stream of visitors. Those are two very different things.

Personally, I don’t interpret keycard elevators as hostility towards our industry. I see them as a fairly normal security feature that unfortunately makes certain arrangements less practical. Hotels have paying guests, staff and safety obligations to consider, too. Discretion goes both ways, and being considerate of the property is probably a much better long-term approach than assuming every security measure is a personal attack on our profession. :)

This does happen but Airbnb put policies into place two years ago which require the disclosure of any cameras outside or at the door of the unit and they are not allowed cameras inside the unit. If a host violates this policy, they can have their account revoked.

I have never encountered an undisclosed camera myself but it’s always a good idea to scan the property if you haven’t been there before and immediately report to Airbnb if they are any not noted in the listing. Airbnb will allow a refundable cancellation of the booking and to put you into another property. That really sucks for whomever was flagged because once you lose your account, it’s unlikely you’ll get it back.

Also of note, building administrations in a few jurisdictions have been cracking down on sex work by posting really aggressive, anti human trafficking posters on the doors, which can be quite intimidating.
