ixmog Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) Papillion was around havelock road but the actual street name is interesting. It is called Keng Cheow street. It means banana in hokkien. Edited August 18, 2009 by ixmog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GachiMuchi Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Papilion failed since day one. Some retail units in the former Central mall was transformed from a retail unit into a sauna. Which means, the glass panel for window shopping was painted black to accommodate the sauna. There were no toilet facilities so they make use of those plastic portable loo units u see at outdoor events as their toilet. There rooms has folding doors and mattress. The worst part of it was they actually provide Vasaline oil base hand creams as lubricant. Talking to the worker there, I found out that the sauna was actually own by str8 men trying to cash in on pink dollars. Which is why they are "門外漢" (outsider)from the way the whole saunas was being constructed. Anyway, I think they closed after about a year or less. http://gachimuchi2008.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixmog Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) Personally, I like Rairua as compared to all the present sauna still in operation. Rairua was good for providing a relaxing place but also had quite a good mix of crowd. Towel club had the best looking guys not even Absolute or 17 has.

GachiMuchi Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I think the crowd going to saunas are usually the same few groups. When one sauna closes, those who patronised that sauna will have to move other other sauna/s. It is not like when one sauna close all those who partronised that sauna will also disappeared from the scene. Thus, your reasoning on Rairua, Towel club, Absolute and 17 about the crowd is not very logical. Anyway, that's just my opinion. http://gachimuchi2008.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 What's wrong with their biz practices?Okay, Now I see the full pic.Though #$%^& is own by Mr XXX but the staffs are all ex-Towel staffs. I was also a victim when I bought a one mth pass and got to used it for 2 wks only before Towel Club closed. They were not honest with me then.Their self-advertisings on BWGF were a bit excessive and desperate.What's shocking were the revealation of personal details plus unsupported and baseless accusations.Must have some integrity & fairness lah. Then others would treat you the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PEter Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Without any doubt, Rairua is the best sauna ever. The place is so relaxing, like second home. The music is soothing, got newspaper and many good magazines. The staffs and patrons are polite. Sometimes they provide snack/ finger food also. There's jacuzzi,Sauna, roof top garden, etc. Many good memories there. really thumbs up!So sad there's no more sauna like this anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new age music is so soothing.The jacuzzi is well-secluded.The orchids at the wash basin is a nice touch.The steamroom is bright and spacious.I wish some rich men reading this could invest in a sauna like this and call it Sextuary - a gay nirvanaI would do free marketing for you towkays.

qedcwc Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Why should I/we? We hv parted ways because I/we don't believe in their biz practices.Okay, GachiMuchi. I read that.Didn't really know about this development as I only joined BW last year.Admittedly, I can't be bothered to browse all of those pages in the Main Forum so I juz focus on the first 5 to 10 pages, therefore unaware of the existence of this explanation page.My point is, u have a list of to-date operating saunas compiled nicely in d forum.It's onli a factsheet.By reducing the name there as a jumbled-up unintelligble word, those newbies might get confused.Unless, ofcos, if an explanatory note is attached to the list for all of us to understand.Cheers. :thumb: Edited March 25, 2011 by qedcwc "You like who you like lah.
