So, I called ahead and they said if I mentioned the yelp deal I could get the full body massage for $30 instead of $40. Upon arrival, the lady asked for my cash upfront so I gave her the $40, tried to explain the phone convo to her & although she nodded in agreement I had a feeling there was a language barrier. After the massage she stood with my water and I asked for my change. Instead she just kept pointing to the tip sign and saying "I massage now you tip." I tried to explain that the change was for her but she kept getting more and more frustrated and, quite frankly, hostile. She just kept repeating that I needed to tip her. I asked her for someone who spoke English so she called someone up that was a little bit better and seemed to understand. She kept telling my masseuse to shut up until she finally stormed off. I asked her to make sure she got the $10 and she said she would.
I understand the language barrier; I understand it's not the most glamorous job, but there is absolutely no place for that. I was mortified in front of another guest who just kept his head down. I will not be returning.
