It’s not long enough to write my joke, so ask me:D

Wow I was nearly denied a room under suspicion of being a sex worker. . . & they were totally right I cannot lie I suck at it

she asked me straight up “ look will you be using this room for sex work ? “

Has this happen to anyone else before ?

I found this helpful link in this months newsletter from the PLA...

& sadly we providers can be turned away this makes me upset because we should not have to bite the bullet and hope to get a room. Discrimination at its finest ..

sorry had to rant

That is appalling. Also, the fact-sheet you link to fails to mention that it is perfectly LEGAL in Queensland for an independent sex worker to operate from a motel or hotel room (not just "from your own home"). See:
www.legalaid.qld.gov.au

Prostitution and sex workers

Prostitution and sex workers
www.legalaid.qld.gov.au www.legalaid.qld.gov.au

So how can it be legal to discriminate against sex workers seeking to do just that?
Well only because section 106C of the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991 specifically lets them.

Playing devils advocate here - while I fully support a WL from booking and utilising a hotel/motel room for their work, having worked in a management capacity in hotels for over 15 years, I can see the other perspective too. Hotel rooms are not all sound proof, so if other guests in the same corridor can hear the sounds of sex at all hours of the day, the constant noise of people entering and leaving the room at all hours of the day, there are going to be complaints to management. If the hotel management then have to compensate these other guests by refunding all or a portion of their stay due to the noise etc, then I can guarantee the management will act accordingly to evict the WL from the hotel for anti-social behaviour. So many hotels/motels are just covering themselves and imposing a blanket ban on WL's from operating to save themselves money and a poor review on Trip Advisor.

That is a terrible way to treat a lady trying to make a few buck's by having a few fuck's.

I have booked day room's for 6 hours in Perth and managed to be entertained by a few WL chicks each time.
Bookem the night before and have a fucken gr8 day out,

This is a good point; I can see why hotel managers would make use of the law that enables them to avoid these complaints (rather than just telling the complainers that other guests have a right to come and go and to sigh happily occasionally). Would the same attitude apply to honey-mooners? Is having sex and coming and going really that unacceptable in a hotel? Or is it just prostitution? So are we talking about inconvenience or just prudish indignation? If the problem is noise 'at all hours' then wouldn't that apply to other guests watching TV loudly or singing drunkenly, and aren't they just asked to keep it down or knock it off? Should the discrimination laws that cover everyone else make it OK for the prudish to persecute people who are having a bit of loving? (Sorry about all the rhetorical questions!)

I didn't say the WL didn't have a right to book and stay in hotels, I was just giving you a perspective from the hoteliers point of view (there are always two sides to the story). In the hotels I have worked at, there have many instances where WL's have operated and have been discrete about their business and ensured that other guests were not impacted. I have also seen some cases where this was not the case - for example a WL booking a room for 5 days - putting up a do not disturb sign on their door and on their departure from the hotel left 5 days worth of used condoms for the housekeeping team to dispose of. And yes other people leave messes in their hotel rooms too on departure.

There are solutions to the issue at hand though - if a WL wants to book a hotel room then I would suggest the following:
1/ Get a suite (not the fanciest suite in the hotel, but a suite which has separate bedroom that can be closed off to minimise any noise).
2/ Get a room closest to the lifts which can minimise clients wandering the corridors.
3/ Look at booking a serviced apartment such as Mantra/Quest - bigger rooms/better room layouts and rooms have in room laundry facilities.

To ask this question, there must be a track record of WL's using that hotel.

There is a track record of anybody using a certain hotel - through the credit card being swiped on check in through to a copy of a person's current photo ID which is a condition of many of the online booking companies such as Wotif/Expedia etc. If the hotel concerned is part of a chain - ie Hilton, Sheraton, Intercontinental Hotel Group (IHG), then the reservations team at a certain hotel can access the database of where the guest has stayed before and this is where details of guests being 'blacklisted' appear too, so the reservations team can reject the booking - ie if the guest has trashed a room, smoking in the room, abusive to hotel staff etc.

Know of a private W/L who was forced out of an appointment block under pressure on landlord from strata company for potentially breaching by law requirements “not to bring disrepUte to to the complex reputation” . she fought and eventually managed to break her lease without penalty, but had difficulty getting future leases either for private or work purposes! Very slippery slope!
 
i always check in "low key" ... no makeup, low key cloth, sneakers, nothing flashy and so on...
and i stay only 1-2 days in a hotel.... low traffic and def. big hotels with a lot of people in the lobby...
if you stay in a little boutique hotel with only a small money, 1 elevator and so on ... i am sure they know what is going on
if you have "high traffic"...
 
Yes. Don't draw attention to your self. Low key. Remember that you have pride in your profession but you don't need to rub stupid people's nose,s in it. And only put your advertising on once you are in the room.
 
You can be as discreet as you like, but sometimes it's your client that draws the attention.
A punter announcing themselves at the desk like they were there for an important business meeting is the height of stupidity and indiscretion.
 
Could also be a problem with less conscientious WLs.
I did read a story where someone rented an Air BnB for sex work, and the owner came in to find the room a mess and used condoms around the place.
If some of those WLs happen to be users, or "drug friendly", could be more of a headache than it's worth.

I would think a clever manager might be smart about it and try to put a WL as far away from other guests a possible.

Always wondered why rock stars trash hotel rooms and throw the TVs out the window.
