After arriving at the airport, my flight was delayed an hour and I suddenly had two hours to kill until boarding. As I wandered around the main concourse, I happened to see the kiosk for XpresSpa, and just as I was wishing I could get a pedicure (my nails were chipped badly). The lady at the kiosk was so nice, and answered my questions and even called ahead to the actual salon in concourse F to make sure they would be ready when I arrived.
Once I found the correct location, I did have to wait about 10 minutes, even though I had an "appointment" from the lady calling ahead. I thought that was odd, since they knew I was on my way, I figured they would be ready when I arrived. I also had to get the attention of the lady working behind the counter, as she was engrossed in a personal call when I arrived and had to wait for her to acknowledge me: -1 star.
I had Melissa as my manicurist, and he did a great job. I had originally asked for mani/pedi combo, but was doubtful she could do both by herself in an hour. She was so sweet and asked what I wanted first, in case we didn't have time for both. Of course, my toes were in desperate need of attention, so I asked her to start there.
I had the express pedicure, so nothing fancy, but the foot massage was heavenly! My toes are clean and shiny with the OPI polish I picked out, and I'm just about as pleased with the outcome as I could possibly hope to be.
I decided to forego the manicure to be sure I had time to make my flight, but I'm sure she would've done a great job with my hands as well. If I'm ever stuck in MSP again with time to kill, I will most definitely be back. read more
