| - Before I jump into my review I want to say that this place isn't necessarily "Meh" for everyone. I've had many a massage for varying prices and quality, so based on that is why this place gets 2-stars. I picked this place to go based on the reviews, but I guess I have a more picky palette when it comes to people touching me.
COST - Yes, this place is probably the cheapest and more decent for the price for a regular massage. But, I've had massages for about the same price in Hawaii that was better (And Hawaii is expensive as hell, like Las Vegas). I paid $89 for a 90 minutes massage. It's a decent price I think, but just comparatively, I've had better for close to the same cost, if not cheaper.
MASSAGE EXPERIENCE - Maybe I'm jaded or have been getting massages wrong for the past couple years, but usually when I get I massage they start with my back since usually there is the most tension there is probably requires the most attention, but what do I know? I'm not a massage therapist, but what I can say is that everything else was done first and my back last. That's not something I'm use to and whether or not that is normal is for a pro to determine, but what I can say is that I feel like my back needed a lot more attention. Also my neck needed a lot more attention, as I type this my neck hurts. That was one of the first things worked on, which I usually like ending with that. I could mention many other things about my massage experience that had me unimpressed, but the order of things was a major one.
AMBIANCE - The room itself was great. No complaints here. Probably one of the better rooms I've had a massage in. As for the building, it was in the midst of renovations, which I can't complain about, but it just made the place look shady.
PAYMENTS???? - Okay, so I made my appointment online, which I think is weird because if I don't know anything about massages, how am I to know what "type" is best for my ailments? Not only that, but they missed an opportunity to get me to spend more money, but because I did not understand their ordering system I just bought whatever massage I was familiar with. I would've totally done more, but there was no customer service to sell me on more. Not only was I peeved about that, but I had to pay for my appointment before I even got massaged. That is ODD. Who does that? But I paid for it anyway. I was peeved again that I could not add a tip to my payment, so I had to go withdraw cash before I came in and I did not know the neighborhood.
OVERALL - Meh, seriously, but I'm basing this off the fact that I've been to many a massage therapist. I'm a bit of a snob and usually when I find someone good I stay with that person, but I have yet to find someone in Las Vegas for me. :(
