I went here for a Bachelorette's party and it was awesome! Big soaking tub and a massage afterwards? Heaven on earth!! We had an hour in the soak room which was big enough for 6 people! A steam, hottub and a cold plunge! They also gave us totes with robes so we could move to and fro areas. The massage was the best massage Ive ever gotten. It was a deep tissue with I believe her name was Jessica or Jesse. It was dim and very relaxing! I will say this place was pretty pricey so I'd do it for a special occasion! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only blip, and it really is a small blip is that one of the front desk ladies misheard my friend when she said she was paying for 2 of us and charged her for 3. We able to sort it out amongst ourselves (Thanks zelle lol) but they were very apologetic![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll be sure to come back for an anniversary or something! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Expensive but was a delight coming here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The room we booked had a whirlpool bath -- watch your skin as it can be sharp but the roof top lighting was beautiful, a sauna with a shower which was freaking crazy hot, the water droplets felt dagger like. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Showering cold felt so good though.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My double edged sword was the cold plunge, kept rotating between the bath and the sauna and that and it was pretty extreme but worth it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Def coming back sometime. Gift shop in the front is nice and no bringing your own products in. read more

For the price I paid everything was nice but the MASSAGE which is what I was looking forward to. I was really disappointed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked for a deep tissue massage when i got there they said i had prebooked for Swedish massage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When we were about to get our massage they asked if I wanted to her to focus on any parts of my body. I told her my shoulder blades and lower back. I thought I was going to still get my full body massage but my whole massage was just based off that and rushed with everything else. One side of my body was massaged nicely then the other side was not massaged the same leaving me feel unfinished. Everything felt clean hot tubs were a perfect temp and cold tub next to it was a perfect cold temp. I won't go back again due to unprofessional massage. I was very disappointed with massage. read more

My husband surprised me with an anniversary reservation at Watercourse Spa and booked me a deep tissue massage with Mark. I'll start by saying that Mark was absolutely fantastic, and I'll get back to him in a moment. As for Watercourse Spa itself, I've been coming here for many years, and I honestly think it's time for a renovation. The facility is starting to show its age. During my massage, I couldn't help but notice a large stain on the ceiling above me. The sink in the treatment room also appeared quite dirty. I had planned on taking a shower after my massage, but after using the restroom and seeing the shower area, I decided against it because both the shower and bathroom looked like they needed a much more thorough cleaning. Another thing that stood out to me was the massage table itself. When I laid down, the sheets weren't very soft, and the blanket covering me felt rough. When I visit a spa, I expect plush, freshly laundered linens that feel luxurious against the skin. Soft sheets, fluffy blankets, a spotless environment, and a relaxing atmosphere are all part of what makes a spa experience feel truly indulgent. Those little details make a big difference and help create the comfort and tranquility that guests are paying for. It's a spa I've always enjoyed visiting, which is why it was disappointing to see it in this condition. I truly hope management invests in renovating the facility, replacing worn linens, and paying closer attention to cleanliness and upkeep. The spa has so much potential, and with a few improvements, it could once again feel like the relaxing retreat it was meant to be. Now, onto the highlight of my visit--Mark. He was an absolute sweetheart and an exceptional massage therapist. He was friendly, easy to talk to, and incredibly knowledgeable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We spoke about a few personal issues related to why I needed certain areas of my body worked on, and he took the time to offer thoughtful advice and even recommended some helpful resources. I genuinely appreciated his kindness and willingness to help.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mark was wonderful to both my husband and me. His experience truly shows--he's been a massage therapist for over two decades, and it was evident throughout the entire session. He applied excellent pressure during my deep tissue massage, took his time, and never made the treatment feel rushed. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and takes pride in his work. If you're looking for an outstanding massage therapist, look no further--Mark is your guy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lastly, I'd also like to compliment the front desk staff. They were warm, welcoming, and professional.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My only hope is that the spa invests in renovating and better maintaining the facility so it matches the quality of the excellent therapists who work there. The staff and therapists deserve a space that reflects the same level of care and professionalism they provide to their guests. read more

Small parking lot for customers. Six dragonflies: nice room with a lounge bed, hot tub, cold plunge and steam room (attached to shower). One hour is a good amount of time to relax, without feeling rushed. I do wish they provided robes and slippers as it can be inconvenient to use the outside bathrooms if you're already wet. Pro tip: keep your shoes/socks slightly elevated to keep them dry when you go in/out of the various water sources. If management is reading this, consider having a shoe rack in the tub rooms so that shoes and socks don't accidentally get wet and lotion in the bathrooms. read more

This was a nice relaxing girls hang out We booked a hot tub room for an hour ($40 per person) and I for one cannot stand a hot tub for longer than 20 minutes so it was more than enough time The inside is cute and clean, and they have showers. The little store inside is also so cute - they have JellyCat plushies too! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also offer you tea / ice water when you walk in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Watercourse Way is the most relaxing place I've ever been to. It's a great way to end a stressful day of work. It's very peaceful, quiet, and welcoming. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Staff will always offer water or tea after check-in and ensure you know how to utilize the jets, music, etc. (there are a lot of buttons!).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've been here a couple times for the hot tub, cold plunge, and sauna. They also have showers. I really like this place and I will be coming back. read more

Ngl this was peak. Went with the wife and it was fire asf the people were nice too. Did not get a message but you don't need it tbh.

This is probably hands down one of the best spas I've been to in Palo Alto -- and definitely recommended if you're trying to splurge and be fancy! They're a little bit hidden on Channing Road, but once you see their logo, you'll be able to recognize which business it is :) The type of care that they give to patrons is quite honestly good -- ones where you will not regret at all costs. They had spas, and also offered massage services as well. I want to thank the staff at Watercourse Way Spa for being very welcoming, and accommodating to our needs. They had quite a bit of complimentary stuff while we were checking in to our spa, and asked if we needed any assistance or extra things while we were there. Me and my friend came here on a very sudden whim, and honestly one of the best decisions ever that we made. We got the Eight Stars package, and honestly it was worth it for two peoples' price overall. The amenities came with a cold plunge, a spa, and a sauna -- all of which we used. Our bodies were not really feeling the cold plunge that morning, so we only used it for probably five minutes out of the 70 minutes that we were actually there. It was quite secluded, very private, and it even included a shower. Overall, I'd recommend this place once more if you're looking to getaway for a little bit from the troubles of this world. Your body will definitely thank you for it :) read more

My boyfriend and I did our first ever massage here as part of Valentine's Day weekend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Because we wanted to do a couples massage, we had to call to make a reservation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We called about a month prior to Valentine's Day (which was a Sat) - while the holiday itself was fully booked, the day after still had some openings. We arrived a few minutes prior to our 4 pm appointment. The location is a few blocks away from the main University Ave, and while they have a small parking lot, there was plenty of street parking nearby. We checked in and paid prior to the start of our appointment. Because they're part of the SpaFinder group, we were able to purchase SpaFinder gift cards at Costco and use them to pay. However they can only be used to cover the main cost of the service, but not tips. We booked a 1h Couples Swedish massage. We both agreed that we had an amazing and relaxing time, and our masseuses definitely contributed to that experience! They adjusted to our requests, mainly if we felt they were applying too much pressure or if a certain area was more sore than expected, ensuring the experience was comforting and relaxing. While the experience was great, it was quite costly to partake. The 1h Couples Swedish massage was $180 per person ($360 total), which seems to be pricier than other locations when looking. Definitely a luxury service we personally wouldn't partake in all the time, but we had a great experience overall! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Omgg.. such a great experience! I'm writing this review right after my massage because it was that good lol[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I received a birthday gift card and decided to use it after dealing with terrible back pain from a car accident. I called for a deep tissue massage and was able to get in right away.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My massage therapist, Eve, and she was amazing! She focused on the gigantic knot in both of my shoulder and provided so much relief. She was attentive, professional, and made sure the pressure was comfortable throughout the session. I was falling asleep and almost drooling half way through the session lolol [[HIGHLIGHT]]I honestly didn't realize how much I needed this massage. 20/10 experience, I will definitely be back! Thank you Eve!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This spa is beautifully decorated.

We will be back and we highly recommend this spa. read more

Cockroach in the hot tub with my fiancée and I! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Let staff know and they weren't eager to resolve the issue with a refund.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Connie- whom checked my finance and I in was very unprofessional.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She didn't attempt to mediate the situation, but rather sit back on her phone smirking while Kyler, another employee spoke to us[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. He mentioned there are bug traps and exterminators that come by- so I feel they're aware they have roaches and pretended to be surprised we found one in the tub. Do not spend money here! Will update to see if we're refunded. Disappointed that it wasn't an immediate fix. $100+ to soak with roaches. *Manager followed up after my fiancée called the next day. Our transaction was voided/ refunded and we were offered 50% off a future visit. (Unlikely to return, as there is a roach problem- but the gesture is professional) read more

Watercourse Way - Cockroach from hot tub - Massage Therapy Near Me - Palo Alto, California

I always enjoy the steam, plunge, hot tub. I had #9 today, I think, it was wooden, which is different from the marble, but I liked it. This review is for the therapist (3 stars), because they all have a different technic, but hers was terrible. I had a 60 minute swedish and her technique was mediocre. She focused on my lower legs, bent one of my legs and did not get all of the knots I had in my back. What I found funny, was upon leaving she and another therapist were in the hallway drinking water together and she gave a simple by. lol. which is fine, but I usually have a therapist offer me water and walk me to the front or the nearest exit. I will be back, but request a better therapist. read more

Booked the hot tub for an hour evening soak. Upon arrival we were checked in and escorted to our room. We were given towels and changed inside the room. It was really nice. Warm and relaxing. The atmosphere was calm and low-key, nothing too fancy, which made it perfect for a simple unwind. Our room had a shower along with soaps for use after the soak. Staff were friendly and attentive, making the visit pleasant overall. A solid spot for a casual, stress-free spa break. read more

Review for Watercourse Way Bath House Spa A peaceful oasis in the middle of Palo Alto that works for just about any occasion. This is a long overdue review. I have been to Watercourse Way by myself, with girlfriends, and with boyfriends--and it has been solid every single time. Whether you're looking for quiet alone time, a girls' day, or a relaxing couples experience, this place truly has something for everyone. What makes Watercourse Way special is the privacy and flexibility. The private rooms are beautiful and thoughtfully designed. Each one typically includes a hot tub, cold plunge, shower, and a comfortable resting area with clean towels and linens. It feels like your own little retreat tucked away from the world. They also offer larger rooms that are perfect for sharing with friends--soaking, chatting, and maybe adding a massage to the experience. The massage services are excellent, and you can book them individually, as a couple, or as part of a group visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff makes the whole process easy and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A few practical notes: * Parking can be a little tricky right near the entrance * I usually park at the Whole Foods on Homer Avenue and walk a block or two--it's simple and feels very safe * The facility is consistently clean, well-maintained, and professionally run * Prices are reasonable for the level of privacy and service you receive What I appreciate most about Watercourse Way is how it encourages you to slow down. It's the kind of place that reminds you to take care of yourself, breathe, and reset. Life is short. Stress is unavoidable. You can't control other people--but you can control how you respond. So go soak. Get a massage. Unwind. Make it part of your routine. You'll leave calmer than when you arrived--and that alone makes it worth it. read more

Spend an hour of relaxation here. Many rooms to choose from, look online for photos for different themes and set ups. I stayed in the nine bats room which has hot tub, steam room, shower, cold plunge and a bed to lie on. Next time I'd like to try rooms one, four, six. Good experience Wish there was a supply of more water or a water station outside of the room, def need it after hot tub, bring your own because there isn't any you can get inside the room. read more

This place is a hidden gem. It had been a while and after hearing about how amazing this place was , I had to come back and am happy I did. The place is clean and inviting and the rooms are serene and can't wait to be back to try out the cold plunge and sauna next. The staff is friendly and kind and definitely can't wait to be back ! read more

This place is such a treat! If you're looking for a great spa day to relax and unwind a bit, definitely check this place out. I went here on two separate occasions: a facial and the hot tub/spa steam room. I'll start with the facial experience. I wanted to start the new year off by treating myself to a facial. I booked a spot last minute, and there was a 9:45pm slot available on Sunday. The location is nice. It's very comforting and peaceful. There is a small parking lot, but street parking is available around there, too. The check in is very easy, and the staff are very friendly! I had Bella work on my facial (shoutout to her!) and she was so sweet and would let me know what the next steps are. I mean, she was so good, I dozed off during my session ahaha. The vitamin C facial was a pleasant experience, thanks to Bella! Next occasion was the spa. My friend and I booked a spot for their Six Dragonflies room, and we loved it! It had the steam room, shower, hot tub, and cold plunge. And a rest area. The skylight had a beautiful touch to the room. We came out of the experience nice and relaxed. While the price can be steep, it's an experience worth having once in a while! I would definitely want to come back and try another room! read more

I was having such a rough week so my boyfriend and I came to Watercourse to destress. We called and made an appointment for the same day. We opted for the 60min hot tub in the room Five Fish. The room was private & included a shower & a bed to relax. Definitely a great price for the service. Would definitely come back to try the massages. read more

Went with a friend for an evening sauna/hot tub reservation. The parking lot was compact and other drivers seemed to be struggling. Once you enter, there is a long desk for check in and then items for purchase as you wait your turn. Our appt was not called on time after checking in with the front desk. We asked if everything was ok 10 min after it was support start, apparently they forgot about us. Then we got through the huge maze of a place to our assigned spa room, there were still towels from the previous people and a wet floor. We pointed that out and they were in there less than 10 min to "clean". At this point we are unclear what if anything has been cleaned or sanitized. The staff then tried to end our appointment as originally scheduled instead of adjusting due to their errors. I took this off my list of places to checkout with my spouse. read more

In desperate need for a chill date, my partner and I decided to book a hot tub and sauna room here at Watercourse Way. Though it would've been much easier to just book the room online, calling over the phone wasn't too bad and they do have a lot to explain as well. Anyways, from the start of the experience it is great. They offered us tea or water right away and showed us to the room. It was super relaxing, clean, and spacious. We really enjoyed the ability to cycle between the cold plunge and hot tub and sauna. Overall it was a very relaxing time and I could not complain about the experience. read more

Having recently had a great facial experience somewhere else, I was reminded of my disappointing experience here last July. I had been neglecting my skin and knew it needed some help, so I booked the custom facial so the esthetician could choose what made sense instead of guessing myself. Once I was trying to relax, in the towel robe and lying down eyes closed to block the bright light, she looked at my skin and proceeded to tell me I needed a different facial because the custom one wouldn't be "enough." [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was not really clear to me what the differences were although I asked clarifying questions, but she talked through multiple options and prices even mentioning one had an offer of a free take home product.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This was NOT the vibe I was looking for. Now I could have just said no please stick with the original plan, but I was vulnerable... this was the first nice postpartum thing I had done for myself and did want to do what was needed for my skin. [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, I ultimately felt like I was being upsold and having to make the decision to spend more money on the spot when I'm sitting there eyes closed trying to relax. It was too much mental load especially since I wasn't familiar with the facial options as a first time customer. The mention of the free product also made me feel like it was a sales pitch. I wasn't familiar with the product, and it wasn't going to play a factor in my facial choice. The facial overall seemed good and I did add on microderm abrasion which I do think make sense for my skin and would have been a simple add on without doing the mental math on the other facial types. At the end, she put on a tinted sunscreen that when I stepped out, made me appear slightly orange like a really poor foundation match so I ended up going home to wipe off my face instead of continuing along my day. All in all, I think they use quality products and know what they're doing. However, my recent facial somewhere else reminded me how this one was simply not a relaxing experience, made me feel put on the spot, and led me to spend more than I had planned[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] without the conviction it made a noticeable difference. read more

Booked a hot tub room with a partner for an hour on a weekday night, $80ish for the both of us. Upon arrival we were greeted by the friendliest staff. If it's your first time you'll have to sign some paperwork but it was over pretty quickly. The room itself was private and cozy. There are different types of tub rooms but the one we booked had a little seating/bedding area and a small shower with deliciously scented soaps. I felt like I smelled so good after showering and I think you can even purchase the soap they use at the spa to take home if you'd like. The tub itself was the perfect relaxing temperature and the water was clean. Didn't have much use for the jets but it's an option! Overall solid and quaint little day spa, I'd love to come back to try a package with a massage. read more

It's a better experience to go to a Korean spa like bay spa in Santa Clara or a similar concept to this in Santa Cruz called tea house spa. I didn't like needing to fill out forms and didn't like that there isn't a separate area to change and shower. The last 10 minutes of your hour booked has to be used showering and getting dressed and we started getting repeatedly yelled at once we were a couple minutes over. Our time in the beginning was eaten into as well by someone explaining the room and getting us set up. The experience was rushed and could be made more efficient. In the future I'll go to other spas that offer a more thoughtful relaxing experience and at a better value. The rooms themselves were clean and nice - hot tub, cold plunge, sauna, steam room. It's neat that each room seemed to have a unique style to them. read more

My boyfriend and I visited Watercourse Way recently to celebrate his birthday and we really enjoyed it! My experience booking the spa room and massage was so easy, I even mentioned to my boyfriend after I made our reservation that the staff was so helpful and kind over the phone. The private spa room was so relaxing and I'm glad they explained the controls to us. We booked the eight stars room for an hour, but mostly ended up using only the hot tub and the cold plunge. It was clean and we loved the shower in the room with complimentary body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. For our massages, we booked an hour long Swedish couples massage and left feeling so relaxed. I had Betty and he had Lauren and we throughly enjoyed it. Our massage therapists were very kind and took great care of us. We are both already wanting to come back to enjoy a relaxing spa day. Summary of the highlights of our visit: friendly and helpful staff, clean and relaxing spa environment, great massage therapists (Lauren and Betty) read more

If you want the best massage of your life, you need to book with Julian. I honestly wanted to gatekeep because his availability is more limited than others -- but this massage was too good not to share. Julian has the perfect balance of gentle yet powerful strokes, melting every bit of tension. If you can handle deeper pressure and like it rough, he's your guy. I always leave so relaxed and already can't wait to go back. If you prefer something more medium-gentle but still super relaxing, Lin is also amazing and definitely worth booking. After a long day, this is the kind of massage you'll crave on the daily. Highly, highly recommend read more

I've really enjoyed all of the massages I've gotten from Watercourse Way. I've had different masseuses each time but have been happy with them all. It's nice that you don't have to wait long before being seen and the waiting area near the massage room is very tranquil - great for setting the mood before relaxing during your massage. I've always felt taken care of when I visit and hope to be back soon for another massage! Didn't get a chance to take any pictures as I wanted to respect other guests privacy. read more

Watercourse is a wonderful spa when you want to treat yourself, but not spend the exorbitant amount that places like the Rosewood and Burke Williams charge. I've been here a handful of times, and I find the ambiance to be very relaxing. I've yet to have a bad massage here! And, when I'm looking for a really quiet self-care day the hot tup/spa steam room is such a lovely, quiet retreat to relax and unwind in. My only complaint is that after the massages, they have limited shower rooms available and if you're getting a service done on a particularly busy time slot it can be a bit chaotic. (Not super relaxing to feel like you need to fight for a shower after your massage!) read more

This is an amazing place I found--Water Course Spa. It's honestly one of the most relaxing spots I've ever been to. The whole vibe is so peaceful and calming. When you walk in, they offer you water or tea, and the place is super clean with quiet, relaxing music playing softly in the background. The massage therapists there are incredible. I especially love Jenny--she works Sunday through Thursday and does an amazing job. They offer a variety of services, from prenatal care to deep tissue massages, so there's really something for everyone. Plus, they sell some cute little body care products that are great for at-home pampering. Their Jacuzzis are warm and private, which makes the experience even better. After your massage, you get to take a nice shower and they provide a cozy robe. The whole thing is so soothing--I actually left feeling so chill that I accidentally crashed my car because I was in such a relaxed state and didn't check behind me! Lol. If you're feeling stressed, need a girls' getaway, or just want some serious self-care, I definitely recommend checking this place out. You won't regret it! read more

I have enjoyed massages here occasionally for a whole lot of years. Watercourse Way is the best in terms of personnel and facilities. This time, I chose a Relax & Refresh facial and foot combo treatment with Agnes. She rocks! It was perfect. Agnes provided relaxing massages and comforting creams on my face and feet, used hot stones on the feet, and massaged my arms, calves, and head. It was absolutely perfect for what I needed that day. I'll be back! read more

I came here a few days before starting a new job to relax. The only time that was available for a deep tissue massage was 8:45am, and when I called to confirm the day before, they offered me complimentary time in their six dragon flies room!

She was very attentive and kept checking in to see if her pressure and the temperature of the bed/room was okay. Would definitely come back! read more

An update after almost a year since our last visit. Ty and the staff were really understanding about my mix-up about booking the individual services for facial and massage. Our second visit was for 2 people but the booking turned out to be 1 person each service and not for 2 people each for the facial and massage. I should've been clearer while making the reservation so this was my bad - while we did not mind this, they were gracious to offer a small discount off our total which was so nice of them. As always, they offer you delicious tea before your stay. We were in the One Pine room this time around and I enjoyed this room with the skylight and dimmed down atmosphere. The water pressure is perfect, and the cold plunge and sauna are always a delight to go along with a hot tub soak. Lastly, Florence our masseuse and Kiyomi our esthetician did wonders on our muscles and skin. We were satisfied with our service and felt so calm it was hard not to doze off. It shows their years of experience and I have always felt so welcomed at Watercourse Way that I recommend it to all my friends who are looking for some R&R. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]From my initial booking phone call, to the actual spa experience itself -- I was astounded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I took my partner to Watercourse Way Spa in Palo Alto, CA to unwind without technology, rejuvenate our bodies (minds, and even our relationship!)

We also received tea, robes, & flip flops at check in, and there were freshly laundered towels in the room. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful escape for a spontaneous date ... but we did not get to receive a facial or massage package because of the last minute booking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Michelle showed us how to use the ambiant music in the room (there is a knob to either turn the spa music up or down), made us feel comfortable (we were first timers!), and brought us our robes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I later found out that you can book more than 1 hour...Thank you, Michelle, and Watercourse Way Spa! Will definitely book again and next time for longer!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It was okay, but probably won't be back. I was looking to surprise my partner with a couple's jacuzzi and massage experience and after doing some research on various Spa's in the Bay, I called Watercourse Way. I shared that I was looking to surprise my partner with a couple's jacuzzi and massage experience. I was interested in a birthday package or something that'd make it a little extra special. They let me know that although they don't have birthday packages and are unable to provide/allow champagne, they can offer a complimentary soap. It sounded nice, so I said sure. When we arrived to check in the front reception did not mention anything about a birthday, nor anything about the complimentary birthday gift. The person checking us in also mentioned the total price of our experience, which was slightly annoying because this was a birthday gift and I would've appreciated a little discretion with that. When we arrived to the jacuzzi there was one jet that was was spraying much more agressively than the others. I almost wanted to mention it, but I didn't want to pack up and move- so that was a bummer. Also the bleach was so strong and I have sensitive eyes- slightly unfortunate but I survived and we had a great time regardless. The massages were okay. I got a swedish but I think I should've done a deep tissue because my partner really enjoyed it. All in all, can't say I'd go back or that I'd recommend it to my peers. read more

This has been the best spa spot I have been to, ever. Customer service is great, kind, and professional but also very welcoming!
