I was staying at the Garden Hotel. Loads of girls just walking around near the hotel, on the road pararlell to Starbucks ; Called some cards that were given to me during an exhibition. Just small kids throwing cards into my brochure as I was walking ; very embarresing, all the Chinese biz guys laughing !!!
But big mistake. The girls were allowed into my room after 11 pm,no problem, quite amazed, as its one of the most secure hotels in Guangzhou ! I had nothing to lose or explain, if they did not arrive, no hassels for myself. I exlained to the guy on the phone, if I did not like them, I would pay their tax fare, and request another. Standard practice.
However the first girl looked in her 30's,overweight by Chinese standards, I would say about 3/10. I rejected her and paid her taxi fare. Second girl (now midnight), was 2/10, however I was so tired of travelling and biz, I decided to keep her.
The worst experience, the ugliest girl. ( I am a regular mongerer in Shanghai and East Europe), paid rmb 800, and forced her to leave the room.
BUT - I am quite sure that these agencies work with the hotels, and are tun by organised crime. As I know from before, you can't bring any girl into the hotel, you will almost get stopped.
I think looking back, I should have been more strict with the agency, but you can shag into your 5 star hotel, no probs.
