Just got back and want to report and contribute
 
1. Went on Wednesday first around 4 PM. Practically no one. 
2. Went again the next day around 5 PM. much more people now but few were my type
3. the ongoing rate is still around 50 EURO
4. only 1 muscular & big type and I am told most of them (Them as the big, muscular ones) are gay4pay. So if you are not into this, the trick of asking them to kiss you as a test to test their kissing skill can tell

While I have posted my comment here already but polysome I can confirm what you mentioned are 99% accurate compared to what I experienced. I do like Yesildirek tho but mainly because of the space. I can breathe there lol. Everthing else is the same as you mentioned

Just back from Istanbul and honest I did not see, or encounter any of the negative events like hassling, harassing, robbing or scam. 
 
Must admin the food pricing or attraction pricing is getting insane. Below are the Hamams I recommend to go (ranking from top to bottom):
1.Balat Çavuş Hamamı Yorumlar - just good turkish massage service and good price. Don't expect more and you might get some surpises
2. Yesildirek - Highly recommended. 12-2pm best
3. Firuzagha - where young crowd will go - 4-7pm best
4. Cihangir - so small and I feel not easy
5. Aquarius Sauna (least recommended) - y'all know this is an escort place, so ..... One of boy see me as his type and literally ran to my cabin and gave me a huge "discount". I didn't go twice 

Hey guys sorry for the late reply but yes they all cum. But everything else other people said above is also true - Cum is normally not included for 50 E. To give more context I am in my mid 30 and with a solid build so prob this is the reason? And there are around 5-6 clients I am pretty sure. So maybe there arent many clients? or maybe too many and I was the last one in their capacity? I don't know. I didn't pay more than 50E
 
But all in all I had fun but also not 100% cuz when I was there only 2-3 are my type.
 
I hope that's clear

Hi Guys,
Before my hopefully forthcoming (not first) visit, I summarized the relevant info from the previous 12 months. [Maybe management would find fit to pin it for future uninitiated.] Anyone so inclined, please correct, criticise or add.
 
https://www.saunaspases.com/saunathermas/ 
Timetable:
Friday – Monday: 15:00-23:00     Tuesday – Wednesday: 24 hours     Thursday: 7:00-23:00.
Best hours to visit: 16:00 – 20:00
[Splash disco party: a late night event, with DJ etc. Not attended particularly by the "boys". More of a general sauna evening.]
 
Room Rates:
Entry – 22 eur; on Wednesday – 19.5     Private rooms rates: 15 – 18 – 20 – 25 (levels of luxury).
Speedoo: You use one of the free cabins with a small bench and plastic covered mattress, or you rent a larger room with a bed+sheets and light (not dimmed light like in the cabins). On busier nights, might have to wait for them.
Riobard: You have the option of 2 towels or 1 towel plus a large terry cloth robe on check-in. If you spread out the robe on a vinyl mattress ()not routinely swabbed between sessions, you get more cloth coverage over it.      Another tip: If you rent a room that is put on your check-out tab, you have it for an hour. Write down the time from the clock at reception, making sure the attendant knows you are aware, and optionally keep the key for 55-59 minutes because you may want to fit in at least one more session. Rookie mistake is to hand back the key after 20-30 minutes and then regret it.     [The light dimmers generally don’t function well.] 
Providers:
Rate – 50 eur for 20-30 mnts; not including cum.
Speedoo: If you want to spend an hour with a guy – you better ask him upfront, so he can price accordingly. I would expect some of the guys to agree to 50 Euro for 1 hour just to close the deal, but with no actual intention of spending that much time with you in the cabin (lots of excuses can come up why a session is ended prematurely). 
 Most “boys” are Latinos from SA; especially Brazil and Venezuela; also east-Europeans. On Saturday and Sunday there’s an influx of only-weekend “boys”. Most are in the 7-inch range and thick enough.
Honorably recommended here: Bruno, Paulo, Sergio, Costas, and repeatedly – Nicholas (Chile).
 
Three Recent Impressions:
Chucky: Lots of guys there, mostly South American although a couple of East Europeans. Had most of the guys approach, some very handsome and some just big cocks. Lots of Brazilians as usual and some very handsome. Definitely was more choice than last year.
AndyUK: Always found this place to be nice, hassle free, great bar area and sexy guys. Top notch.
keepItReal: Providers were friendly and almost all of them stopped by to say hello. Still, couldn't find an enthusiastic bttm. Mostly guys were tops or just looking for quick oral fun. Had a good time chatting with some of the providers and they seemed to be in good spirits and quite welcoming.
 
Speedoo: The guys will get condom and lube from the bar in the basement when they agree to go with you to a cabin or room. I don’t recall if you get charged for this when you leave; presumably you do, but it’s only a few Euros. Probably only 1 type standard condoms available. I haven’t seen guys asking for special sized condoms.

In my opinion sex in public is disgusting but the cruising without any sex ending sounds awesome.

Here's the direct Hunqz link for Rome:

Here's a topic about Rome, I'll post the Hunqz link there:
https://www.gayguides.com/forums/topic/39369-rome/
 
About the condoms, I'll discuss it here because I don't want to go off topic too much (warning: dirty stuff):
https://www.gayguides.com/forums/topic/48274-protection-warning-dirty-stuff/
 

Yes, for sex....the same guys might be charging over 100 on the apps/sites or bars. But in the sauna they're there to try to do as many as they can, if it's slow, they might spend a little time with you, but otherwise expect about 30 mins max at that price.

I've had guys come back to my hotel for 40-50euros , from the sauna.....

Based on my research by reading all the posts here. I believe EUR 50 is just a standard rate for having 20-30 mins fun time with the escort in Thrmals. No guarantee this 20-30 mins sesh, including cumming. Sometimes the escorts will agree on <= 50 for a massage too, but the massage would not be 1 hour standard. Just like 20-30 mins as well. Every price point in my reply here applies to Thrmals only

You’ll have a great time and the rate tends to be around E50, more for longer

Well it depends on who and where. I never hire porn stars for sure. Actually I don't watch porn so I don't know who is a porn star and who is not. One time a provider said he was famous after we had sex and when I Googled him, he indeed played in some porns. Another incident was someone who couldn't get hard to top me so I topped him. He was a porn star too but I don't think I would ever hire him again. I don't think porn stars deliver better than an average provider with a good attitude.
I usually go for guys that are not too professional but has a good attitude toward this sort of job, ideally he enjoys sex more than being famous or being rich But they are certainly not street beggers or a quickie. Maybe my word muscular led to a wrong impression, I am not looking for body builders but I like guys who go to gym and have a proportional body (no chicken legs or hulks, though). And I never had a difficulty hiring with 100e in most European countries so I started wondering what you guys are doing or how much you are paying. I really thought the going rate in Europe is 100e except for those countries I mentioned...I never reveal information about me, I just contact them via WhatsApp and ask their rates and I was quoted 100 in most of the time but sometimes 120 or 150 but usually they just go back to 100e rather quickly if you refuse them. Unless I really want this particular provider, I never hire someone who lowered his rates because I think they will provide less. So I just say thank you and leave him alone. 
Also, I don't hire from rentmen or us based websites. If you contact them from their they usually quote 200 or more. Maybe this is why you guys are surprised but in Europe I use hunqz most of the time. Search according to my specifications and check their rate or contact them on WhatsApp and ask for their rates. Again I usually get 100e even when they don't know a thing about me...
Rate wise, anything east of Austria is usually less than 100e, the west of Austria is slightly variable. I always find Spain to be particularly cheap, even the top escorts quote 100e, or even less for 30min. Portugal is another less known place for a low rate in my opinion but I stopped going there for job reasons. I even got 50 multiple times and one of them was really good. I hired him quite a few times when I used to go to Portugal. Of course the best place is thermas in Barcelona and even then when I hire them outside they usually quote me 100e. Some asked for 150 but they were well known guys like Junior. I like him and respect how he runs his business (affirmative and always consistent unlike many small minded providers who constantly change their rate and play games) so he was always an exception. But I am also not very demanding in terms of sex. No fetish no bb. I just require the guy to be able to get hard and kiss with tongue. So that could be the reason why they always quoted 100 for me and was always willing to meet with me outside of the sauna. 
 

I visited the original Thermas - in Barcelona - over two successive nights at the end of April.   First Night - Wednesday   On the first night, I got there about 6 pm.  I don’t see that many guys about  - I would say there was about seven guys for hire, and maybe same amount of clients.    In particular I noticed three rather feminine young men, who I first though were rentboys, but then realised that they were clients. They tended to stay in their own group and made no attempt to hire that I saw. I am not sure if they went into the wrong sauna, or just wanted to have a look around at the scene (of course, for all I really know, they may have been sated from a big orgy with a dozen rentboys just before i arrived).   Some of the escort guys were eating and seemed to have retired from the hunt, for the time being at least. I was only approached by a Nigerian guy and a South American guy (cannot remember exactly which country he said) named Juan.   I was not hugely taken with either guy. I agreed to go into a room with Juan for massage, which ended in mutual masturbation and he gave me a BJ. We agreed on €50 and I gave him €60  - we are in the room from maybe 40 minutes altogether.   The sauna was a bit quieter than I anticipated, so I asked Juan if it had been busier earlier in the day, and he said it was. So the next day Thursday I made an effort to be there by 4 pm.   Second Night - Thursday   There was a bigger crowd of guys this time. Maybe 15 escorts and slightly more customers. Several escorts approached me, but none very aggressively. I had a chat with Juan, who was there again, and seemed anxious for repeat business. In general the feeling I got was that they rentboys were nearly all South American guys. However, I did not like to question too much if I wasn’t interested in them, as I didn’t want to be seen to be "leading them on", so to speak.   I went for a dip in the little pool there ( a very pleasant feature which few mention in reviews) and saw a rather moody looking guy sitting in the seats in the corner at that level. He was a rather handsome, masculine, Eastern European looking kind of guy, so I went over and said hello. He was the only guy I took the initiative to approach in the Sauna.   He turned out to be a Russian guy called Ivan. We we had a chat and we agreed to go to a room. The only free rooms were both very dark and small, so I decided to splash out €10.50 for a private room The main advantage this was that it had sheets on the bed, and you could turn the lights up a lot, all the better for appreciating Ivan's fine physique!   Ivan told me he was straight, and top only. He had previously been a professional footballer. But now he was unemployed, and needed money.   We agreed to €60 for him to give me a massage and mutual masturbation. The massage was a bit hard for me - he told me he had been trained in proper sports massage, but I am more used to the light rubbing you get in Thai sexy massage place as a prelude to the "afters".   He then offered to fuck me. However, I was not in the mood for that, so I just told him I wanted him to cum. He said that he wanted another €30 or €40 for that, so I decided not to bother (there is nothing as desire-killing, as a guy who starts to negotiate in the middle of a session). In fairness to him, however, we had not discussed it before we entered the room, and I know it would probably hinder his ability to do so with a later client. So I didn’t hold that against him   Instead I just got him to  wank me until I came.   In the room, he seemed a little morose. I asked him if he was thinking of going back to Russia, and he said he was afraid to at the moment, with the possibility of conscription into Putin's war machine.   When we ended our session though, he accepted his €60 with a big smile, and volunteered to give me his phone number so we could arrange a session outside Thermas. So I think he was happy with his 40 minutes work and remuneration overall. However, as I was flying out the next day, I couldn’t take him up on the offer.   All in all, although it was not the most exciting sex experiences I have had, it was very pleasant and relaxing The rentboys all stayed out of the clients locker area, and it felt a very safe environment for both the rentboys and clients.

i was at Thermas just now, it took me some time to find someone I like, most of the boys were bottoms or not hot at all.
but once when I thought Thermas was a miss, a couple of boys walked in by 6 pm and one of them, a Colombian, has the biggest one I've seen in a while
there was a moment that I was the only client walking around. So after a couple of "hi" with the Colombian we ended up together and it was great, I still will recommend Thermas, I will check it out on Saturday and i will report back, a

 
 

Heading to Barcelona Thermas tomorrow from the States. I will report.
Also, debating if Prague or Zurich- Paragonya. I will decide once there
besides Hunqz, I bookmarked Telechapero and Morbototal to check them out, but I've never tried them. Are those any good? a bit untidy... 
is there any site like Tele/Morbo in Northern or East Europe?

Yes. You might be able to find a guest who wants to play w/ you if you are young and have nice body (but then you most probably wouldn’t come to Thermas). Guests come to Thermas to hook-up w/ models/rent boys; not to have sex w/ other guests. If you want that you go to Casanova Sauna (regular sex club/sauna in Eixample).

I posted a review of Thermas Sauna earlier this year, after my visit this spring. You can have a read of it yourself here:     My review was a bit more general about the the experience of using the place, compared to some other reviews.    The only other sex place I went was the "Night Barcelona" cruise bar. It is a small bar, with a darkroom behind. The evening I went the darkroom was busy, with mostly older customers. Definitely worth a visit. The pictures on Tripadvisor give a fair impression of the place.   The thing to watch in European darkrooms is your wallet!  I would suggest getting hotel in the Gaixample, as the gay area is known, and then walking to the bar. That way all you need with you is just enough cash for a few drinks.   I was sorry I did not get to more places, I would be interested to hear your review of the spots there after your visit in December.
