Brothels of Elko, Nevada
Elko and Wells both reside in Elko county, but are spaced 50 miles from each other along I-80. The actual city is a decent size and is the largest city between the Utah border and Reno along the Interstate. So if you need to grab anything along the way on your trip besides services from a girl, Elko is the place to go to shop for basic needs. The brothels are all quite centrally located in town not too far off of the main street through town, but reside on a street that dead ends at the railroad tracks and around some smaller homes. Elko has four brothels: Inez’s D&D, Mona’s Ranch, Sue’s Fantasy Club, and #1 Geisha, all on one block so that you can walk pretty much from one to the other without hopping back into your car.
In my general thoughts on local regulations I would have expected that Elko had some of the same rules as Wells’ brothels since they are in the same county, but I was apparently very wrong. The regulations regarding girls as clients are odd and really had silly explanations when I asked “why?” Apparently women can not sit at the bar, and can only sit in the parlor area or must go straight to the back if there is no parlor area like at Inez’s D&D. The reason for this rule is in the event that the brothel is raided by local authorities they wouldn’t be able to differentiate between the female clients and girls who are working illegally with no license on file with the county. This is absurd to think of since these are legally owned and operated brothels. Why would they have to constantly worry about being raided or harassed by local authorities if this was all legal? I am sure any other normal business wouldn’t have this constant fear looming over their heads like the brothel madams and owners seemed like when I walked in. It was as if they thought I had a SWAT team following up behind me as soon as I walked in the door and stood in the bar area for more than ten seconds.
Elko was also the first and only place, that I can recall, where I noticed some brothels had house determined rates based on time and the negotiating was cut out. This seems like it breaks some sort of law as far as the girls being independent contractors by not being able to negotiate some of their own prices. All in all, Elko gave me a weird vibe as far as their service and how they treated females. I am sure this would differ if I had walked in and was a man, of course. Further in my trip I met one prostitute that wanted to go have some fun and ended up in Elko (either at Mona’s or Sue’s, I can’t recall). She claimed she had a great time even though their rules were a little odd. That gave me hope that I just had an odd experience due to the time of day/time of year of my visit.
Im a bit behind in my reading but are you Partaking of services?
April 8th, 2011 at 5:14 pmIn reading these reviews my thoughts are what depressing places to seek companionship and I suspect for the girls, what depressing places to work. You could be overly harsh, but what you’ve said is consistent with what I’ve read other places, so I’ll chalk it up to accuracy.
April 11th, 2011 at 5:46 amI agree with Jim about the depressing part for both the client and the girls. It almost seems a bit dehumanizing.
I have to wonder what the ladies are thinking about the clients as they sit in front of a line up.
LVC, We appreciate your account from your unique prospective. You write most clearly.
April 14th, 2011 at 7:07 amThe line up to me lets the girls spend literally 10 seconds standing there, introducing themselves, to be picked or not picked…. and then waste no more time on a guy who isn’t interested in them. The internet is a virtual line up except the guy only calls the girl he likes the looks of by her pictures. I don’t think it’s any different.
I know that these reviews so far seem “ugh” and maybe wonder why people go to legal brothels, but I promise it gets better. I started off the way I traveled which wasn’t with the greatest of brothels, but it definitely gets better to places I would definitely want to partake in or work at. I thought they were that nice and wish they could all be that way, but it definitely takes a lot of money and a lot of work to have a nice brothel.
