    My partner and I booked massages in advance and were placed in separate private rooms when we…read morearrived. The place was clean and simple, no fancy decor but inviting enough with dim lighting and gentle melodies playing in the background. Beware, you can hear through the walls -- cars honking outside, staff chatter (in Chinese) in the lobby and shared space with massage lounge seating, even my boyfriend's snoring in the room next to mine during our sessions. We got the combination massage (30 minutes foot/30 minutes body), and my experience was positive. Pressure wasn't consistent during the entire treatment, but for the most part it was on the deeper side and effective. The first half focused mainly on the back, plus neck, shoulders, and arms, as well as a bit of the legs. The second half, my masseur asked me to "turn over" as he left the room briefly. He meant not only to flip over to lie on my back but also to change positions so that my head would be at the foot of the bed. From there, he did a very detailed job on my legs, feet, and each individual toe, borderline painful but overall good. We paid upfront before our services, including a credit card fee (2.50 per massage). Afterward, we gave a cash tip. They have a sign at the front asking for $20 (with very friendly language), which is the typical amount we tip anyway. The staff was incredibly kind and professional, so I have no complaints.

    I would not recommend this place…read more The experience started off strange but bearable when they required us to pay for the massage and tip before receiving any services. They asked if I was comfortable with a male massage therapist, and I said yes. However, the therapist appeared extremely nervous and was shaking throughout the massage. He was unable to apply much pressure, making the massage ineffective and uncomfortable. I paid for a full-body massage, but only the back side of my body was massaged. The front was completely skipped. When I asked why, I was told the therapist wasn't sure whether it would be appropriate. That explanation made no sense to me, especially since I had already agreed to having a male therapist. If you're advertising a full-body massage, customers should receive a full-body massage. What made the experience even worse was how my friend was treated. After her service was finished, she was told to wait outside in the cold while I was still receiving mine. The area is not the safest, and I found it incredibly unprofessional to ask a paying customer to stand outside and wait. Overall, this was one of the most disappointing massage experiences I've had. Poor service, poor communication, and not the service that was advertised. I will not be returning.

    Came here on a last minute booking for a prenatal massage and had the most relaxing time ever! I…read morecame in for my 8pm appointment and was quickly greeted and shown hospitality. After a few minutes I was then introduced to my masseuse for the session, Meredith. Meredith greeted me formally with a handshake, following up with questions on how I'd like my massage to go and what areas needed more attention. She walked me into my room and assured me to lay however I felt was best. Throughout the massage she applied a consistent amount of medium firm pressure and worked on my upper back and hips the most as requested. It's been hard trying to find massage places that will provide a decent prenatal massage but Meredith steered the way for where to go. The session closed out with her kindly asking me if I had any questions, plus advising me to rehydrate and load up on protein for me and my little one. Definitely the place for a relaxing and serene experience!

I had easily one of the best massages with Andrew. He was so progressional, knowledgeable, kind, communicative, and incredibly talented. I did a pre-natal massage and added the scalp massage last minute. The scalp massage turned out to be a dream- so it great addition to and already amazing massage.

    I originally booked a half foot and half body massage, but I modified it and requested shoulder,…read moreneck, head, and foot instead of the usual back and foot combination, and they were very accommodating. It ended up being one of the most relaxing experiences. I had a bad headache that day, and Sasa focused on my head massage, which helped a lot. I felt so much better afterward. I will definitely come back and recommend this place. They don't speak much English, but they are very open and accommodating to your needs. Their prices are on the more affordable side, so I highly recommend tipping generously if you're happy with the service. They do ask you to pay first, but I let them know I would add the tip after the service, and they were completely okay with that. I didn't feel pressured to tip in advance at all. The place is clean and neat. see the pictures for reference.

I had booked a…read moreone-hour foot massage, but instead she kept rubbing the same spot on my head over and over--it wasn't relaxing, it was actually irritating. When I looked up, I saw she was on her phone, texting, and only using one hand to absentmindedly rub my head without paying attention to what she was doing. I immediately called her out, and she didn't deny it--she just told me to wait for another massage therapist. This experience made it clear that this business does not prioritize or respect its customers.
