Reach hotel paid deposit 100k and got a room. The room was spacious and clean but no deposit box. I chose this hotel as it is hidden, dont like crowded place. I was hungry and ordered nasi padang with GoFood. Price is 40k total which is cheap as they give generous servings, enough for 2 people.
12.30pm decide to walk to booking joints. My wifi is up and running so easy to navigate. I followed Bro Nono's map and reach JV Happy 8. There was 10 girls but not to my liking. Walk from there to Kupu Kupu Joint. Papi gathered all the girls, around 10 girls also. Took 1 that smiled at me, nego from 1.5 Juta to 1.2 Juta. Asked Papi to send her my room at 3pm. Buy condoms and rokok and went back to hotel.
3pm and she came right on time. She was petite and looked like a schoolgirl. She actually just turned 19 recently so that explains it. I have a weakness for girls with petite bodies so lucky me. We clicked instantly as i know Bahasa. After hugging in bed and watching Youtube, had 1st shot.
She wanted to watch horrow movie, so i decide to go BCS mall to watch. Bought 2 tickets for 70k. Drinks and food was expensive. 1 large popcorn, 1 medium fries and 2 Milo Dinosaur costs 230k. 3x the price of movie tickets. Milo Dinosaur in Batam is different, they have pearls in it. They dont put Milo Powder at the top but whip cream. The seats and sounds are great quality also. She was hugging and pulling me the whole time during jumpscares so i enjoyed it.
Book a grab to hotel for 13k. Ordered Satay with GrabFood for 45k. We had 20 sticks and lontong so quite cheap. Had 2nd shot before sleep.
The next morning i had 1 last shot with her before she goes back. Gave her some tips, procede to breakfast downstairs. Compare to Lovina Inn Hotel next door, the breakfast was good. Got fruits, bread, porridge, rice and coffee. Went for a 2 hours clean massage for 200k near Nagoya Hill. After that eat at A&W, in Batam there is no Q at all. Took a Grab for 13k to Harbourbay and took ferry back home.
It was a memorable trip after 6 long years. Batam has improve a lot, now with Grab and Gojek around. No need to hassle with taxis for fares and can order food anywhere anytime. Be careful when booking Grab around places with taxi drivers, drivers tend to avoid to pick you up. A big shoutout to Bro Nono's useful information, refreshed my memory instantly.

Thanks for the FR bro.
Actually, even with Grab / GoJek, Batam a lot of places still very hard to get Grab. Firstly, no long-term SIM card like in JB (so I suppose you rented WiFi from SG?), and as you said, taxi drivers are mafia af, will gang up and chase you down. Once I take from Batam Centre, I walk almost 1 km away to get my grab. KNN, the taxi drivers follow me. Sibei chor.
Seriously, don't know when they will do something about these kind of Mafia-ish behaviour. Even in Bali also sama-sama.
