| - I have been here 3 times and each time I have been very impressed with the services. I am not a huge fan of the front desk but more about that later.
Spa is an Asian zen feeling, there are about 30 or 40 half size lockers contain a terry robe, slippers and a nice box to hold any jewelry ect. The spa does have a great steam room, hot tub and all the extras when getting ready. I love being able to use has much shampoo and conditioner as I want! The showers are VERY nice, double head a mix between rain and high pressure, they also provide razors and cream. You do have to ask for a blow dryer as they keep them locked up, but have an assortment of hair products and good brushes.
Waiting room is very nice, floor to ceiling doors that open to a water feature and pond, with blowing white linens. They offer hot tea, water and some dried cranberries/nuts. The room is small and there are not any chaise lounges, but mainly just chairs - I don't really view as a relaxation room, but more of a social waiting room. There are plenty of magazines to occupy you, Fashion, Home ect.
The therapists will come get you and you actually walk outside to the individual rooms, it is really nice to have some of the fresh air, before and after the treatment.
Massage: I have had two therapists here Cheryl and Keith both fantastic and amazing, top two massages I have ever had and I have had quite a few. One really nice touch, is they have about 4 different aromatherapy oils that you get to smell and select from, they mix with the lotion and give you a nice kick to the massage. I do recommend a sports massage, they have some great stretching techniques while being able to do deep tissue. Both therapists are very skilled and have the perfect pressure without have to tell them or guide them.
Coffee scrub - I had this about a year ago, I don't generally get scrubs but if you have time for an extra and love coffee, you will love how you smell and feel all day after this.
Okay now the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, the front desk. I walked in and gave my name, they proceed to ask me if I want to use the card of file - I don't even know which card this is as sometimes my boyfriend will treat me. I told them that I was unsure so they print a bill out. I told them I would pay at the end since I didn't know what I would tip. Oh no no, she tells me this is just a preview of the services with prices???? Anyway, I thought it was strange but wrote it off, thought maybe ppl get sticker shocked. Well.....I leave and go the front desk and say I want to check out - The front desk lady goes oh, well did you get the preview when you came in??? Now I thought that was a preview NOT the bill, watch it here - it already includes a 20% tip. I just wish they would call a spade a spade, don't call it a preview when I am actually signing the bill and you should point out it includes the tip.
