The more gravity you are experiencing, the more that time slows down for you. Black holes have a lot of gravity so time would slow down a lot if you went near one.

Note that time dilation is not an experience. It is only an observation that is measured by someone else.
If you approached the event horizon of a black hole, then you would just cross it normally. You wouldn't slow down.
If I tried to observe someone crossing the event horizon of a black hole from far away then they would literally never cross it from my frame of reference. And yet, they still do.
