A value but in no way lesser alternative to its neighbors
Alright so I found this place after getting bored of the other nearby clubs and wanting something new. There was a big front double door but you enter through a small side door. Within you…

Holiday night slow & cozy
Place:
Went there by an Uber, it seems like a factory area. Seems not very safe. They have a parking lot. This place is not big, pretty small I would say. Entering the door you’ll…

Late night at Playpen was so-so
Went to the club around 1:30 am since I live DTLA. $20 cover charge (typical). When you walk in, the bar is to your right (parallel with the door) with the stage in the middle…

Very slow night on a Saturday, and few girls working only
Went in on a Saturday night thinking it would be busy and good crowd but it wasn’t at all.
I just landed to LA, and it was my first time in this famous Hollywood land.…

Visit to the playpen
The club is located in a shady looking industrial area. Right off the freeway though. Parking lot is small and gated. There is also parking on the right side of the building,…

Play date at the Playpen
This club isn’t like the corporate clubs (ex: Rhino, Synn, Paradise). Mom and pop owned. The parking lot was small, but there was a security guard in the lot, so I felt more comfortable leaving…

This visit was a waste of time and I probably won't ever come back again!
Feeling nostalgic, I came here on a Wednesday evening around 7 P.M to visit this old stomping ground of mine. Surrounding the club is a dingy looking area with rundown buildings and unmaintained streets but…

There was plenty of parking. The guard at the front did the usual search. I paid the full admission, bought a drink, and found a seat with a view of the stage. One girl sat…

One customer, Two Dancers, Three Dances,
Visited late Monday afternoon. The club is in a rough part of town but the club itself, while small, is nicer than you'd think. The hottest girl there was the bartender/ door girl/whatever…

This place is lit up well with red lights.Don't expect any extras. albeit, maybe finger action.
