I am writing to share an experience, during a recent visit to one of your events, which left us feeling quite uncomfortable and disappointed. We have been regular attendees at your parties and have always appreciated the space you provide for the community. This is why the situation we encountered at the entrance was particularly disheartening. Upon arrival, we were met by a staff member at the front desk who, from the outset, appeared unfriendly and dismissive. Without any clear reason, he didn’t let us in. And kicked us out. It is just because he felt of so called “impression”. we were accused of carrying prohibited substances and subjected to what felt like an invasive and unwarranted search. This included our belongings being checked and even our jackets being smelled, which we found both inappropriate and humiliating. But he couldn’t get anything still he didn’t get us in. He was racist and rude. We fully understand and respect the need for safety and adherence to venue policies. However, the manner in which this was handled felt disproportionate and lacking in basic respect and professionalism. It created a sense of being unfairly targeted, which is especially concerning in a space that is meant to be inclusive and welcoming. We value SLM and want to continue supporting local community spaces, but experiences like this make it difficult to feel comfortable returning. Never gonna return to such places where they shows racism.

Wonderful experience! I was there for my first time on Friday 16.01.26 on a nude party. I got a very friendly and professional welcome by the host at the reception entrance. I walk around to get to know the place, went down to the basement area, and immediately got into action with the very hot guys for 4 hours, with 2 short break to hydrate myself with drinks at the bar attended by another friendly and professional bartender. All the guys downstairs where easy to approach, friendly, direct and ready :) I did had an amazing time and will come back for the other parties.

Unfortunately, the number of rules felt excessive and somewhat unnecessary. The wording on the website also came across as quite abrupt, which made the overall experience feel less welcoming than expected. Not much happening here at all. Very boring place!

Horrible place. I can’t believe the host refused to let customers go in because they didn’t wear leather. I don’t think everyone in the venue wearing leather, come on! I’ve been to tremendous amount of clubs in the world, including lots of fetish leather clubs, so don’t tell me what fits me, and there’re definitely ways to figure it out but the host chose to let customers go. There already have been so few places in this city and they still chose to let customers go. So stubborn and never happened in the other places in the world! I hope the next time I’m here this place would be closed permanently.

Would not bather going again! Service was quite friendly and the instalations were nice, but the crowd incredibly disapointing for a saturday club night, mostly locals, quite indiferent (almost rude) and closed to say the least, everyone on their own little groups, hot daring men not to be seeing at all, for a leather themed place no one seam to ever train or visit the gym. From midnight until almost 3am nothing was happening in the entire basement area. Sad to say but most men there just pretend to be in the leather theme and their attitudes are far from it, pathetic really, if you expect a fun and real leather experience, this is the last place where you will find it.
