| - Will never go back.
I booked an appointment for the $45 package with 30min foot + 30min body massage.
The foot massage was really relaxing. One point I found strange was they didn't have any clothes to change, and told me to take my pants off (they gave me a towel to cover my body). Then we moved to the body massage. The guy told me to take off all clothes including underwear (in Chinese). Well if I knew I had to be completely naked, I would've wanted to have a female technician...
Here are the bigger problems I had:
1. The guy who gave me massage spoke NO ENGLISH, other than just one word "okay". I wasn't too worried in the beginning as usually at places like this, they knew basic massage related words. But not this guy. Not even words like "strong", "soft", or "weak".
When I asked him to soften the pressure, he obviously didn't understand, said something in Chinese, and made it harder. I tried to use different words to explain, but he got frustrated and raised his voice abruptly saying "OK OK OK!". It already was awkward being naked in a small room with a man. I stopped explaining and just wished the time would pass quickly.
2. After the massage, the cashier told me the price is $45, but when I paid with a credit card, it came out $50.85. When I asked him, he just said "Yeah, plus tax". Well you just told me that it's $45 one second ago. When I made booking I also had confirmed the final price. I think they are one of those sketchy places that hide sales and don't pay taxes. I didn't even pursue it as I just wanted to go home asap.
Honestly, a service with lack of ability to meet basic massage needs and not being upfront about the price isn't worth $50.
