Visiting Cincinnati (my hometown of 18 years) for the weekend, and I found The Garage after searching all over the tri-state area. The reviews (while all incredible) simply cannot do this place justice -- an absolutely incredible experience. A calming space, a gifted therapist with infectious energy, a massage catered to my specific muscle issues, and a vibe that has left me feeling relaxed and uplifted. Stop your searching, forget the fluff that comes with stuffy spas, book an appointment with ONNIE, and GO! I've found my therapist here, and I cannot wait to see them again!

Wow! No, not the good kind…read more Well, I picked up a 1 hour massage here from Groupon. It was $35 which is typically a really great price for a good massage. Unfortunately, I'm not sure it was such a great price for what I got. After picking up the Groupon, I attempted to schedule an appointment. I had a difficult time getting through on the phone. I left messages and received a return call, however, it was awkward and for some reason it seemed as though we struggled to understand each other. I was finally able to make an appointment that worked for me. The location itself is not particularly confidence inspiring from the outside. When I arrived, the door was locked. I did receive a phone call from the owner saying she was running late. She arrived 15 minutes after the start time of the appointment and let me in. The inside is certainly a bit better looking and there is a waiting area. I wasn't super excited to fill out all the personal info requested on the forms. The owner was talking on the phone with someone else, loudly for a while. I was lead to a room for the massage eventually. Most of the questions I was asked seemed aimed at getting me to sign up for a regular massage package. I disrobed and got on the table. During the massage, there was a lot of talking and asking of questions that I found distracting and in some cases, awkward. I was asked about my dating status and for details. There were times when I felt that perhaps not enough of the top sheet was covering me. At one such time, someone who was presumably another worker there, opened the door and entered into a conversation with the owner during my massage. At another time, the masseuse took a phone call with one hand and continued the massage with the other. Her fingers were a bit scratchy as well. At times, I felt they came a bit too close to certain areas for my complete comfort due to being on edge given the other circumstances. We had started very late, and yet we ended up close to on time, which meant that I did not get my full massage time. When I dressed and walked out, the owner and worker were having a conversation in the other room, so I started to see myself out. She saw me and approached, asking for a tip (I had already left one). Then she told me that we could negotiate a price I was comfortable with that would allow me to come once or twice a month on an ongoing basis.

I've received a lot of massages over the last few years, and wanted to review the places in…read moreCincinnati comparatively. If I could give the place 3.5 stars I would. BOOKING: First off, I ended up here based on a Groupon. You have to call to make an appointment, and I played phone tag with them for a while before actually connecting. I was able to make an appointment, though their availability is somewhat limited due to only having two massage therapists. (Apparently a lot of Groupon-users waited until the last minute to book their appointments and then were super angry when nothing was available. Their own fault.) LOCATION/AMBIANCE: I missed this place and drove by once or twice before getting the right parking lot, but there were plenty of spaces available. When I entered, there was nobody at the desk so I sat awkwardly wondering if something was wrong. The waiting room was cute but all the Asian theme decor was a little much for me (neither of the therapists are Asian). When someone finally came out, I was able to check in and fill out my form. MASSAGE: The massage started a few minutes late, but she made up for the time at the end (I generally expect changing time to be included in the hour). Though the rest of the experience was blah, the actual massage was the total redeeming factor. Karen was amazing, listening to my feedback and giving me one of the best massages I've ever had. We talked through the massage, which was fun for me but if you're looking for the super-quiet peaceful experience you might have to speak up. Since I had a 3-session Groupon, I got to see her twice more and she recalled exactly what I wanted. Though the Groupon was for a Swedish massage (light flowy relaxing strokes), she gave me the deep tissue massage that I really needed. Other: (Reading the previous review,) My therapist did mention that there would be a promotion available for massage discounts, but did not bother me about it at all. Though I was leaving town for a while so maybe it would have been pushed more otherwise. What this place is: Small, fully run by the two therapists, where you develop a relationship with your massage therapist. What it is not: The full spa experience. Or a group large enough to offer several services. Overall I would give this 2 stars if it wasn't for the exceptional massage. They could definitely make a few improvements, like not booking clients back-to-back. Because the massage therapists also act as receptionists, there ends up being little delays here and there which add up.

She left the room multiple times to text and talk on the phone to who I'm guessing was her next client, the last twenty minutes of the massage she was on her phone with her 2:50pm appointment. When she came back to the room she rushed the last ten minutes of my massage and then rushed around to get ready for her next client. Told me my time was up and then left the curtain open while I changed into my clothes. I paid for my session and gave her a small tip because I have class but a younger me would have stiffed her. Not coming back unless Annie returns.
