I tried to walk in to 2 other places nearby for a Sunday afternoon pedicure and was rejected at both due to closing time and a wait. Thanks to Yelp, I found this place right around the corner in an obscure location. It was desolate, which enabled me to walk right in and sit at one of the 8 pedicure stations.
Upon first glance, the place was on the dingy side and wasn't the best atmosphere. I looked closer and the stations themselves were clean, but the supply carts, airbrush station, and areas behind the chairs were filthy. The selection of polishes was slim and also needed some cleanup with lots of painted-on bottles (glad I brought my own!). People had test painted colors all over the rack of polishes. It seems than one careless individual inspired everyone else to do the same (I had never seen this). Even when visiting cheaper nail salons, I'd like them to have a clean and relaxing environment.
The pedicure itself was pretty good when judging the quality of the nail job itself. The technician was gentle and precise. For $20, it was very good.
I'm grateful to have found my Sunday pedicure....but think that US Nail & Spa won't be anywhere near the top of my list just because of the less than spa-like atmosphere.
I waffled between 2 and 3 stars. The atmosphere was definitely a 2....but because I'm now sitting at home with nice looking toes, I'd consider a 3. But days later the place still gave me weird, dirty vibes. It's a solid 2.
