TotallyOz Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 I had a great afternoon at Hero. Hero is always the best for me in Bangkok But, the number of boys were no where near recent visits. The mamasan said that they were packed the day before but few boys showed up when I was there. The mamasans here do tell the truth. They are reliable and the boys deliver. The massages are great and the guys are handsome. I didn't really like the selection today but I choose one new guy for one massage and a regular boy for another. The first guy was 32 and the other was in his late 20's. Hero has more older guys and there are few (if any) twinks there. The rooms are reasonable and the expected tips are as well. I think the room was about 500 baht and the tips were 1k. I did eat at the restaurant and the food is very inexpensive as well. Hero is always a fun way to spend the afternoon.

The mamasan said that they were packed the day before but few boys showed up when I was there. Did the mamasan mean packed with boys or packed with customers? Were you in Hero on a Sunday? If you were, one possibility I can think of was that both boys and customers avoided the Phloenjit and lower Sukhumvit area because of the Red Shirt demonstration planned for the same day. The mamasans here do tell the truth. They are reliable and the boys deliver. The massages are great and the guys are handsome. My experience too, and perhaps the chief reasons why Hero is doing well. Business can be very simple, but many places forget these basics - integrity, reliability and value-for-money. Hero's priorities are correct: dominate a niche, maintain staff discipline and hygiene of the premises. Instead, some massage parlours go overboard in designer chic interiors or flashy websites and then neglect the basics. Hell, Hero doesn't even have a website. The rooms are reasonable and the expected tips are as well. I think the room was about 500 baht and the tips were 1k. I thought it was 600. Did they reduce the normal price or did they give you a discount because you booked two boys? Quote
