I returned to this spa, after a year. I figured i would give them another try to see if the massage was better. I did not have an appointment and I was almost immediatedly taken care of. When I arrived, I met Frank, who made me feel very welcome and told me that he was the new owner. Jenny worked on the parts of my body that really ached and when I left, I felt like a new person. Great job Jenny. Next week I will return and make it a weekly visit. Thank you Frank for taking over this spa and making it a definite asset to the community. Good luck in your new endeaver. read more

I've been to Summer Day Spa four times now, each time having a different massuese. I'd highly recommend Ana or Ci Ci. There are others that are not as thorough and do not take direction well. For example, I went last night for a 60min [for $48 - a great deal!] massage. Ana is out sick this week, so I was paired up with a different massuese. I asked for feet to be included in the 60 minutes and all that I received was a little rub on each foot for about a minute a piece. I also asked that she focus on a certain part of my shoulders, where there clearly were knots and she kind of just passed it over. Not the best, i'd say. But on the complete opposite spectrum is Ana. I saw her back in the autumn time. She was very focused and listened to my needs. I asked for some attention to be paid to the feet and to my shoulders - she went at it on my shoulders for a good 30+ minutes and got out all of my knots and kinks. Amazing! And the foot massage was stellar as well - a good 10+ minutes [though I asked for this after the first 60 minutes]. I'll definitely be back but only for Ana. And the decor is pleasant - the place is definitely clean [especially compared to some of the places in Chinatown in Manhattan.] Each bed is placed between private curtains which is nice for privacy. read more

Today I had the most amazing massage by summer day spa! It was my first time there and they did amazing job of releasing tension, relieving stress and I left feeling amazing! I asked for the Accupressure massage and it was great. The masseuse really knew what she was going and the whole time during I was asking myself why I didn't do this more often! read more

I almost made the silly mistake of going to a high end spa today. Instead I came here. Super no frills but amazing massage and hot stones! My weekly go to. So happy! read more

If you consider being mashed as massage, then you can come here for the cheap massage. I came here to be relaxed, and I ended up more stressed. There was no massage technique involved. It was just hard pressing all over. I love massages; and, I was really disappointed once the massage here started. The best cheapest massage I've gotten in NYC is still at Graceful Spa hands down. read more

Clean and professional. Checking in about level of pressure. Very relaxing. For an inexpensive massage this is a decent bet. I have had different people and each one has been very relaxing. read more

This is an outstanding cheap massage. 50 dollars for an hour long, amazing massage. Like the reviews say below -- you won't get your own room (curtains serve as dividers), but it really doesn't matter . The place is clean -- not a lot of light -- but they have relaxing music and the staff is very kind. I'll definitely be back. read more

First time at Summer Day Spa.. and it was a great experience! Can't wait to come back.

I've been here a few times now and have had a positive experience each time. Friendly, professional staff, and great massages. The place is clean and the beds are comfortable. The separations between the rooms are only curtainswhich means you hear other customers' massages; nothing too fancy, but you get what you pay for. I would recommend trying this place out for an affordable massage. read more

I love coming to summer day spa. It is the best massage in the area and I feel amazing after I leave. They really work on your body and what value! read more

About 90% of the time this is a really good Tui Na chinese massage (I would recommend Ci Ci). The other 10% you get a masseuse who is mediocre. This is much better than average for cheap massage places. Don't let the name fool you: this is not a spa. You don't come here for the full pampering treatment with essential oils and all that. You come here for a cheap therapeutic full body beat down. You will be able to hear the person next to you through the cloth room dividers. The masseuses will talk to each other during the massage, and sometimes (but not often) may take phone calls. read more

Nice joint for my jet lag. The masseuse was super nice, and felt totally relaxed afterwards! Best value for the buck. totally worth it!

Cici was amazing. So far, this is the best cheap massage I've ever received. Cici alone beats Graceful Services! read more

I love the service here everyone was very polite I had a lot of tension in my shoulders and she concentrate in that area as well I felt very relax after good service read more

This was the absolute worst experience. Listen, I love my massages and can handle some of the less-than-conventional set ups that many of the places in NYC offer because generally, it's a decent massage at a cheap price, but I cannot stay quiet about my experience tonight at this place. I walked in around 6:30 without an appointment. They quickly accommodated me in room just off the reception area. Aside from the fact that I could hear someone's near orgasmic moans from the room next to me, it was going well. Then the phone rang. In the room I was in. My masseuse answered, literally with one hand on my back and one hand on the phone. She proceeded to have a 3-4 minute conversation with someone that wanted to know how late they were open, what their prices were, etc. I know this because I could hear every word spoken on both ends! I laughed and thought "you get what you pay for". BUT HERE IS WHERE IT WENT WAY SOUTH/COMPLETELY INEXCUSABLE: without telling me, the masseuse quietly stepped out of the room (I assumed she was getting some lotion or something). I kept my eyes closed, but after several minutes passed I lifted my head up to find that not only had she left the room, she had left the door wide open, exposing my half naked body to the entire reception area, including two males. The way they were looking at me made me feel the most vulnerable and exposed I have ever felt in my life. I quickly shut the door, got dressed and shuttered when the lady asked why I was leaving. I can't remember ever feeling so utterly humiliated. Completely unacceptable practices. WOMEN, BEWARE!!! This is not a safe place and I will certainly do my part to make sure no one visits this place. The end. read more

I am moving out of Brooklyn shortly and realized I have never reviewed one of the places I will miss the most. For a value massage there is NO BETTER place in the Prospect Heights/Park Slope area - and believe me I have looked. I've been at least 10 times in the last 3 years It's not snazzy, but very clean, low lights, warm air, oddly soothing music. Then, 90 minutes of muscle melting for $75. But don't neglect to tip your lady - she's been working hard! read more

OUTRIGHT THEFT! My first experience here was nothing short of robbery. They gave me a 15 minute massage, lied, and charged me for a 30 minute massage, then instead of giving me my exact change when I gave them a large bill, they kept most of it for a f*** 40% tip. They would not give me back my money when I called them out on it. The backstory: I called in ahead of time to make sure they had room and to make sure they could still fit me in given that they were closing in half an hour. The lady told me not to worry and just to come. When I did arrive, they were getting ready to close, understandably, so they left the lights on. In order to speed things up, they had TWO ladies massage me at one time which was NOT PLEASANT. One was hitting the right spots but the other was uncomfortably jabbing at me and distracting from the experience. Neither of them used oil and only massaged me under a blanket. I would have complained but since they fit me in last minute, didn't want to bother. But then 15 minutes into the massage, they stopped. This would have all been fine had she not then charged me $26 -- the full 30 minute massage price. To make things worse, when I gave her $40, intending to receive change, she only returned $5, explaining she would keep the extra $9 as tip for the both of them -- this does not even make sense since under her logic, a 15 minute massage with two ladies should then cost $13. A generous 18-20% tip for both of them should only be ~$2.5 each. I told her I did not receive half an hour of massage and further, I did not ask for two ladies to massage me at once. She lied and said it was 30 minutes, as if I couldn't tell time, and said I needed to tip them both. She would not give me back my money. Unless I either started yelling and screaming or physically wrestled the money from her, it did not appear she would give it back. I was not going to be that violent or dramatic or call the police for about $10 lost dollars so I am writing this review to warn others. Go at your own risk, knowing that they take shortcuts and rip off customers. If they are that cheap, what other shortcuts do they take? Do they regularly wash the sheets? Do they change the towels after each massage? I doubt it. read more

Was looking for a massage spot with a convenient location to my apt that was willing to take a walk in or last minute appointment and Summer Day Spa was an excellent choice. They were ready and willing to accommodate a last minute booking, had excellent prices, and the massages were top notch. Will be revisiting on the regular! read more

Excellent massage at a good price! Therapist really takes the time and care to make sure your aches and pains are addressed. Even the music was really cool. Definitely recommend! read more

I have been here three times, and feel that is enough of an experience to say, I don't recommend it. Varying levels of professionalism, no one there speaks enough English to be able to communicate effectively, and all three times, I can't say I walked out feeling like it was a good massage. They were all mediocre massages, in different ways. Most recently got an upper body massage with the male masseuse there, and it was creepy. I will leave it at that. read more

This place is amazing. The massage is worthy of a much higher price. The only thing keeping this from being much pricier is the setting, which is still better than most. I definitely recommend to everyone! read more

i had a walk in appointment here with my boyfriend and we were assisted right away. the lady at the front desk was thorough in asking what kind of massages we wanted. each of us wanted to focus on different areas of our bodies and they were able to accommodate. we got a punch card, so we'll definitely be coming back again! read more

I had a very negative experience getting a massage here. I was about 5 minutes into my massage when I realized my masseuse was TEXTING with one hand while giving me a mediocre massage with the other hand. I asked her to stop texting during my massage. She did...but then started again. Then, she put her cell phone down on the massage bed right next to my head - buzzing into my ear. At one point, she took a call. She was texting again toward the end of the massage. Really unprofessional, bad service. read more

After moving boxes into a new apartment and then a day of work stooped over my computer I came home today needing a massage desperately. Summer Day Spa is nearby my new place so I rushed over there and am I so so glad I did! It was one of the best massages I've ever had, and I've had luxury massages many times before. This place is definitely not "luxury" in ambiance, but the quality of the massage was. Jessica helped me: she was kind, responsive and skilled. It was never too hard or too light and she tailored the massage to all of my "problem areas". Wow. I'll definitely be back! this place is as good as it gets! read more

This place is great. Really clean and nice. I go regularly for their hour massage - it's only $48!

This is the best massage I've ever had! It's surprising that the massager there knew which parts of my body was in pain. My neck and shoulder was killing me because of the long time seating in front of computer all day. I felt much more released after the massage! read more

Great spa in Brooklyn! My favorite style massage! Easy reservation to make. Great place to know about.

I've been here twice over the past few months and both experiences were excellent. The massage was much better than some other places I've been in the area and all of the employees were kind and professional. Little to no wait time with calling ahead only thirty minutes. read more

I come here for a great inexpensive massage every time I'm in Brooklyn. Great rubdown after flying from CA. Reliable, consistent, thorough. Great find for me!! Helps me enjoy NY. read more

I love them! They are nice and polite. The facials and massages are always on point I've been there 4 times so far.

Great affordable massage with Cici or Lucy. They only massage the back of your body unless you ask for front of legs, face. The rest of the massage therapists I've tried are not good and the guy is well a little scary...No frills place, no private rooms the tables are separated by curtains. They often answer the phone while massaging LOL but Cici and Lucy give the best massage for this price and type of location. They don't replace my excellent higher priced, private massage therapist who really knows my body and pays extraordinary attention to the spots that I need most attention on but they are great for the in between times and when I have need for a quick fix me up back pain kind of thing. Everyone is there is also very nice. You should try it! read more

I have been visiting this place for the last 3 years. They very flexible and attentive with appointment scheduling and are currently offering a 15 minute additional massage if you opt for the 60 minutes massage service on weekdays. I just booked a massage today and everything went smoothly. read more

Do not go. The fact that it reeks like fried chicken is only the beginning. They also don't know what they are doing and can cause injury. I'm a massage therapist, so I'm always trying to give these places a chance, but it's not worth it. They basically poke & prod your body in bad ways. When I told her to stop (in my kidney area) she actually pressed harder. Ughh. They also keep you on your face the entire time, which is TERRIBLE for your sinuses and is painful. Unfortunately, this place, like many other "cheapo" massage places are in it only to make money and my guess is that they are not licensed massage therapists. $100 for 2 people is expensive when you have a bad experience. Pay the extra few dollars and go to a real spa or massage therapist recommended by a friend. read more

a few days ago I came here and my life was saved! the masseuse knew exactly what she was doing, and all the pain/tension in my neck was dissolved. this is the second time I've been there, and both times I have been very pleased. highly recommended! read more
