| - i'm really not sure why this place got so many stars. i've been to quite a few spas, and this one is way overpriced and the experience was mediocre. i got the chai tea body mask treatment, which starts off with a grape seed body scrub. you know, if i spend $210 on a treatment, don't get cheap with me on the products. the lady had like 5 grains of sand on her hand, and was trying to exfoliate me. i bet walking around in skinny jeans has more of an effect than this. she tells me that it might get cold, but they can't heat the chai tea mask because it'll dry out. so turn on the chair warmer! i dunno if it was not an option, but i was uncomfortably cold the whole time.
after the scrub, she brushes on the chai tea mask, again with the stinginess. lady, do you pocket the rest of the product and sell it on the street or something? while she was working on my front, she folded up a towel and placed it under my head, but after being on my back for a while it started hurting my head and neck. i'd like my $210 back, please! she finished me off with a vanilla bean lotion, but i was so freezing cold at this point that i jumped right into the spa after the treatment was done. brrrrrrrr!
a few minutes later my friends were done with their treatments, so we decided to check out the steam room. it was so steamy in there that you couldn't see 2' in front of your face. then this lady comes in and leaves the door slightly open. she gets up to close it, but doesn't close it all the way again. this time she's too lazy to get up and close it again, so after giving her the evil eye, i get up to close it. she said: "oops, i'm sorry. was it not closed?" ya, right lady, like you didn't know :P after about 15 minutes it got too hot, so we went to chill out in the arctic room, which i thought was the best part of the spa. it looks like a cute little igloo inside, and even has "snow" (it's really foam) drifting down from the ceiling. after sweating buckets in the sauna, we chilled out in the arctic room again. i want one!
