One of the worst massages (if I can even call it that) Iâve ever experienced, and let me explain why:
We called in advance to schedule a couples Thai massage for 2 pm, we showed up and clearly they had no idea what was going on nor did they give us a Thai massage. There was also a very uncomfortable language barrier as well that made it awkward.
We are led to our treatment room and thereâs no where to put your clothes/belongings, and get this, NO SHEEET to get under. Just a tiny towel. I have NEVER experienced this before; we ended up going under the top sheet because what else were we supposed to do, and then our massage therapists came in and berated us for doing it wrong. Extremely uncomfortable and awkward. And then my massage therapist proceeded to rip that away from me so I was completely exposed without anything to cover with. There was also a sign stating no sexual services provided, why does this have to be explicitly stated? Super shady.
Our massage got interrupted 6 times due to customers entering. The massage therapists each took turns (3 times each) going to the front to tell the customer they were busy. Why not put a sign up during treatment to prevent interruptions? Or better yet have a dedicated front office person. This completely interfered with our ability to relax and actually enjoy the massage.
My masseuse never asked about the pressure being appropriate. It was too light and it didnât feel as if she actually knew what she was doing, more so just âgoing through the motionsâ. She also kept coughing throughout the massage, and would also mutter under her breath and speak to the other masseuse in a different language, which is quite frankly rude and detracts from the ambience we were attempting to achieve.
As I didnât have a sheet or anything to cover me besides the half towel, my masseuse would continuously reposition it, which left me feeling exposed and very uncomfortable. I still canât get over that we werenât given an actual sheet to get under - literally every massage Iâve ever had provided that along with a pillow for your legs - also something that was glaringly absent.
Lastly, we had to pay for the massage BEFORE the actually treatment, which Iâve never experienced before. This is awkward because it basically forces you to tip on the treatment service before youâve actually received it.
We left the location uncomfortable, frustrated, and angry that we decided to go there.
I would strongly advise anyone to reconsider visiting this establishment and look elsewhere. Worst massage ever.
Update I experienced COVID-like symptoms 2 days after the massage and sure enough tested positive for COVID. I HIGHLY suspect that my massage âtherapistâ had COVID and did not inform us of her symptoms let alone wear a mask while she kept coughing during the massage. Just another reason this place lacks any shred of integrity. AVOID...

   Read moreThis is just leaving the place....I have been here twice, first time was ok but then again I never got a massage before.. second time I slept wrong and got a huge crook in my neck like never before. Went there and the lady went over the 30mins she was doing everything she could think of to help me. At the end I still left with the crook but she kept trying and trying and rubbing, I was kicking in pain and saying stop but she kept going (it's a good thing) I left feeling a little better but still in so much pain. Even with all that I could feel she felt bad and wanted to help she kept saying I'll keep going don't worry about the time. I didn't get her name and she wasn't the lady I first had who wasn't all that great. I tipped her 30$ and the massage for 30mins was 39 with tax. She put hot towels oil mint and something else to release the muscles but they...
