| - Let me begin by saying that this was my first trip to a spa in Las Vegas. In an attempt to give myself a treat after the Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon in December, I booked my massage, sugar scrub, and manicure for a few hours after the race.
As others have described, the facilities themselves are nice enough, if not cramped. The communal nature of the bathrooms, though, leave a lot to be desired. The toilets are right across from the whirlpool baths, which leads me to believe that if you are attempting to relax in the tubs, hearing other people doing their 'business' would be distracting.
Though I saw another reviewer who had a good experience with Timothy as a therapist, I had the opposite experience. After informing him I'd run that morning, I expected a more deep tissue massage. Instead, he used the softest touch, which barely did anything to loosen my muscles. It was followed by the sugar scrub, which was good, but nothing I couldn't have done at home. I totally agree with earlier reviews that the treatment rooms are ridiculously small.
Following this, I had a manicure done by a therapist who could not have seemed more bored by her job.
In general, the atmosphere is nice enough, but my feeling is that the spa was an afterthought, and was shoehorned into its space. Services were nothing special, and employees didn't seem like they were very excited about assisting clients. I will not go back.
