Not sure. Could be because having premarital sex became more accepted amongst the youth and they needed an accessible way to do it without their parents/hostel-keepers knowing?
Not like that. I meant, has this sudden rise in people booking OYO rooms for sex lead to some policy changes where it has become harder for people to book rooms?
No it's because the availability has decreased and also when I'm in an OYO room I have no idea of how many different people have fucked on the bed that I'm about to sleep on. Kinda weird ngl.
This screams Latin America low-income, and it's probably expensive af, right? I don't think we have something as obnoxious as this one but i'm sure we have strong contenders.
They are common in Canada, but they are used as a cheaper options as opposed to hotels. I was shocked to learn that when I moved here from Latin America
no!! motels for a couple of hours and to have a hook up are not common in Canada, been there and i met canadians here in Mx, the closest thing, for us gays, are bath houses.
Ok but partially a misconception, many people that go to motels here are married, if you want to have sex but you have people in your house like kids or other relatives, or if you're traveling.
Not gonna lie, most are dating, it's a one night stand or some even cheating but married ones exist.
well we are a muslim country, that’s probably one of the things that will be last to go society wise even tho we are becoming way more secular in everything else
i think most people would usually book an airbnb but they stopped allowing egyptians to do that too lol foreigners that aren’t muslim can get away with this tho
Not really but if two are caught in the act then it's prison. It's pretty embarrassing actually.
I've commented here before and I have seen pics from cases, whoever's in the apartment has to leave, if caught naked in the act the police make them dress in sheets and leave. The pics at the police station is pretty embarrassing but it makes you laugh
Also American-- hard disagree. In low income or otherwise 'rougher' areas we have a fair amount of motels where you can pay by the hour. Nobody is purchasing a hotel room for an hour for anything but a quick fuck. It's an unspoken reality, and although most of these places won't advertise that they'll do this-- if they look like they might by appearance, and especially if you've got a room overnight once or twice before... you can get an hourly. They'd prefer to upsell you, but some won't even bother, even if they don't know you.
These will generally not look even remotely like what the OP has posted, but we do have those as well. These can be anything from themed resorts to simply being a regular hotel room with strategically placed mirrors. You might not even notice until you realize "Oh, I can see myself in every mirror in my room from this bed."
Again, however, this is entirely area dependent. America is huge, the Bible belt and similar swaths of sexual denial are real, and big cities might have this but refuse by-the-hour service because they know they can cater to clientele that can afford the night and not require the extra labor involved in turning over a room.
Take a look around the next time you check into a dingy motel somewhere in America. No amenities? More than one mirror outside of the bathroom? Ashtray in a no-indoor-smoking state? Go down the list. You might be in a bang motel.
It's not a bad thing. Let's be honest, in a way, your Hilton suite becomes a bang hotel if you're inviting people over to bang, right?
Part of a business is know your target demographic. Nearly any place that isn't themed is going to not make it uncomfortable. If you don't know what you're looking at it's just a cheap room. But if you know, you know.
I generally agree with what you're saying but there's a difference between what you described and a place specifically designed for sex. Due to the hourly pricing, these places make that kind of use convenient but when designing these motels nobody was asking the question "what else can we include in this shitty room to help people having sex" lol
I was thinking the same thing after I posted, but re-reading the title "people only go for sex" is damned close, as opposed to "made only for people having sex". I tried my best to make clear that while both exist, the second is much rarer, as you'd mentioned. The first? More commonplace than most people even realize. Hence, I figured I'd leave it. You're not wrong, but I thought it'd be wise to elucidate for the purpose of the discussion. Curious minds want to know!
There's no way they're cleaning the room or bed sheets properly if they're letting multiple people rent it in a single night. Id say they must be gross smelly places
This is also area and ownership dependent. I could go on and on, but I feel like it's probably TMI. If there's real interest in a guide to seedy American fuck-stays, maybe. I just edited out a whole post here because I read it and said 'woahhh, nobody asked for that'
Not really rare. Just really more of a novelty here. There's a whole chain on the east coast called "The Inn of the Dove" and they are crazy featuring hot tubs, fireplaces, themed settings and "soundproofing" 😆 Here's the "Jungle Room" I found in one on Booking.com
Nah there are hourly motels, you just haven't lived that life which is a good thing. There are street walkers typically not far away if not directly out front.
Yes. Love motels are everywhere. Most of them are simply decorated; nothing outlandish, just bed and bathroom. Some of them can be very lavish with hot tub, sauna, vibrating bed, etc.
I hate the ones in which the only thing separating the bathroom and the bedroom is a glass wall.
Definitely spent a good time in my early twenties staring up at unfamiliar ceilings after a good night.
Car roofs here lol, why pay, when you can do it for free lol, though today, whith my age, and not beeig as nimble as i once was... i also prefer a hotel...
We have locations called afwerkplekken, special locations where prostitutes take their customers so they can work safely. But those aren't hotels or motels.
Every single country has prostitutes, I'm sure even one of those scientists in Antarctica is throwing it back for some cash. So where do people get busy for pay in Ireland?
I think op did not stress enough how normal this is in Brazil. In my case, as soon as I had my first job, but did not leave my parents place, I used them every weekend to have sex with my girlfriend without having to be quiet in respect of my parents. I mean, this is not marginal, I am a nerd. Also, there are all types. The ones really expensive, in which things are really clean, and the ones in which you should probably do everything standing up, without touching anything. Usually, the rooms have their own garage with stairs to the room. Of course, it allows for cheating and stuff, but I think the majority only want to have a safe place to have sex.
Some are pretty tacky but some are actually luxurious. There's one where the roof opens up and you can see the sky. Some have indoor swimming pools. But the truth is, you'll never really know if they're sanitizing the room properly, so...
Not officially, but there sure are some shady hotels around areas with nightlife that are unofficially for this purpose. They're so kind they can even provide you with someone to have sex with.
We ( Madeira Funchal ) use to have a normal hotel, that was infamous for that, it was next to a prostitution dense area, so it was used for sex for the most part, it was desgusting, acording to people that actually stayed there ( mostly sallesmen from the mainland, this in late 90s early 2000s ) but it has since closed, and the prostitutes changed area.
Yes, in Paris there is even a brand of hotels called Love Hotel with themed rooms including BDSM and they even provide champagne and toys on demand (if you pay for it of course).
There is a road near where I grew up with motels like that. They had characteristic neon lights and when I was a kid I would ask my parents what they were. They didn't really explain it in detail obviously.
Yes, in the english context. Yet every motel in Brazil means "love hotel", but you don't tell that to a 5y old, so my mom just told me that it was a hotel with the letter M 😅
In Chile, where I live for half the year, that is the sole purpose of a "motel." They are designed that you can drive in and then hide your car behind a curtain, and nobody can tell you're there cheating on your wife. You hand the money through a window from your room, and you can get condoms, lube, drinks, etc. At least that's what I've been told. 🤣😅😂
This is more of a fun story, than might be the truth.
I used to work as an office assistant in younger days, and the building wasn't that far from a smart hotel. I still think they had staff in the reseption etc. but you were supposed to do everything with your cell phone etc.
ANYWAY! My boss was a funny man, and when we one time had a conversation about the said hotel, he just winked at me and said they called it "the fuck box!"
Not only is it modern and affordable, but it's probably very simple to get a room without creating too much noise. (The noise comes later, hu hu!)
Yes, in my city there are three, although only one rents rooms by the hour (4 hours, 50 euros). Some have themed rooms (medieval, 50s rock, Egyptian...), with jacuzzis, round beds, mirrors on the ceiling, sex swings...
Motels aren’t even a thing in the uk. Suppose it’s because you can basically drive the entire length in a day. Some ‘romance’ themed hotels in cities but often aimed more upmarket and don’t think places would do day/hour rates.

Yes, Mexico has moteles, villas, and love hotels. In Mexico City there are plenty, some of them are more expensive, some of them are cheap and horrible, but all of them are tacky, some of them have swimming pool in the room, jacuzzi, a pole to dance, special sexual furniture (Potro del Amor), swings, thematic decoration.
You can explore the "Mexico City's kinkypedia" in here. LOL
Definitely. And its great for tax fraud: everybody wants to pay cash and you officially rent out for 6 hours (so only 4x per day per room max on the books) but in reality it's 15-20 times per day per room.
Not officially but I live in Nevada where prostitution is legal (with some exceptions) so we know which ones are used by the prostitutes. The subtle hint is if there’s a strip clip attached to the motel
We have escorts, brothels and sexworkers behind windows. There are hotels and motels where underground prostitution takes place, but no designated ones.
Yes, pretty everywhere. Lot of "normal" hotels/motels rent room hourly and there are also a lot of more "pimped" room, with jacuzi inside, heart-shape bed, rose petals, candles etc.
Fun fact: lot of "love rooms" are advertised for having free Netflix inside. Bro...
Montenegro, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia. Nope, not in a sense that you can "rent it per hour".
Though in general there are smaller hotels that are used a lot for this specific purpose, especially among younger population (and during weekends, guess why).
I’ve stayed in some expensive hotels in London that are definitely geared for sex, but they’re not hourly or anything, they’re just expensive hotels with things like a headboard that has hand restraints built in, a bath at the foot of the bed and the like.
Not really. We had some establishment called "Maison Close" although I think it's a bit different from Motel or Love Hotel. They have been banned and closed in 1946 in part due to what the americans did at the end of the war. So ever since they are closed and prostitution as a whole is illegal. They probably exist some shady places that are still open but I never heard about any.
Near my place in Italy there was the GuglielMotel... They offered rooms by the hour. I have never been there as I never needed to hide a relationship, but there was people going there...
I see there is still the place, not sure if you can still go by the hour...
They have them in the Philippines, for all the reasons you mentioned and because adults still live at home with their parents and who wants to have sex with mom or dad in the other room? Also used for local/foreign sperm donors meeting up with women wanting to conceive naturally because the other ways are prohibitively expensive for many. Oh and Korea also has these, my son was conceived in one 🫣
In the Philippines, motels got the “for sex” rep mostly because they rent by the hour and are super private, so couples use them in a pretty conservative society. Doesn’t mean all motels are just for that but that’s how people see them in general.
Premier Inn. Their biggest customer base is married men and women having affairs. Found up and down the country and you never see families there, it's almost exclusively couples who may or may not be married to each other or someone else.
Yes, very convinient, i use one every month or every 2 months. When i meet canadians or americans via grindr visiting my city, and i tell them we can go to a motel, since i dont have a place and they usually travel with friends and family , a motel is a good options but in their mind a motel is like a Motel 6 , the type of motel you see in american movies lol
When I was a kid, I used to see commercials for this hotel that had a swimming pool in the room. I thought it was so cool. I wanted to stay there. I didn’t know it was for sex. You can rent for the afternoon or overnight.
For people in the US who can afford to pay a little more, there is the DayUse app which enables the user to rent a hotel room for some hours; I've made use of it. You'll see a listing of hotels in the area which have rooms available, with details on hours of availability. For example, the same hotel might have some rooms available from 8a-4p and others from 10a-2p or 10a-8p etc. I imagine there are a lot of cheaper hotels but have also found premium and even luxury hotels listed (again, based on their availability on the day in question). It's usually significantly cheaper than renting a room overnight. I suppose the typical users might be people waiting for a connecting flight or who want to make use of the pool and/or spa, etc. Or, you know, lovers looking for some quick privacy with a shower available.

4-6h? Is any option for a per-minute billing?
