Sheer incompetence
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

Seriously ladies, spend your money elsewhere. I am a frequent spa-goer (Ohm Spa and Thai privilege among my favorites), and I had a miserable experience at this spa. First, I was made to wait for 45 minutes for the facialist to retrieve me from the waiting area for my 5:30 appointment. I had dinner plans for the evening which I was getting late for, so when I asked to reschedule, the receptionist kept insisting "she'll be right out". Everyone seemed thoroughly incompetent -- once my facialist received me, she performed everything so hurriedly and awkwardly; she seemed pretty inexperienced, and did not make me feel the least bit at ease/pampered. There were also atrocious overhead lights on the entire time, and the entire place is much uglier than other spas. Please go to Ohm spa, Thai privilege, or elsewhere for a truly pampering experience that is well-worth your money.

Pros: Midtown location - convenient post-work

Cons: Customer service, poor value, chaotic/cramped, ambiance relative to competition, incompetence of staff
