A Thai massage regular once asked me if I ever went to London. I said yes. She said how about you take me some time?
I thought about it, then a few years back needed to be there for 3 days. Told her. She asked if she could stay with me in the Hotel, see her friends during the day and then we could go out in the evening.
I agreed. Booked hotel-only extra was her Breakfast, paid for her train tickets (open return, as she was staying over with friends for the weekend).
Worked really well. I got a nice girl on my arm in the evening and some good sex thrown in; and before you ask-she did not use the hotel room for incall - TBH I think she was working in a Massage parlour for a friend from 10a.m till about 6pm each day. She got back around 7pm both nights we were there. Showered, made herself very presentable and we had 2 good nights.
I probably spent slightly more than normal for a 3 day visit to London, but there were no fees involved.
Costs - train tickets, bought in advance so got saver 1st class. Hotel - as said just had to pay for an additional breakfast. Extra evening meal and extra drinks over 2 evenings.
Savings - no overnight fees required. Also saved at least 1 visit to a Thai/Chinese Massage place.
She could not get her visa renewed and left UK about 3 years ago.
