For starters -parking was rather difficult. I received a spa package for my birthday which included a couples massage, a spa manicure and pedicure. Honestly, the massage was okay though it seemed rather rushed. The spa pedicure was horrible! I thought (for the amount he paid) that they would do a lot more than rub some nasty cream on you. Other than that, the pedicure was like ANY noprmal pedicure you have received anywhere else. The place was crowded (NO PRIVACY AT ALL), loud and obnoxious! As for the manicure...they did not do acrylic or any type of silk wrapping on your nails. The job was sloppy and two people did my manicure. One lady argued to the other manicurest to finish my manicure which I found to be rather rude. I kept my mouth shut, said thank you and walked right out that door. I will never go there again, nor do I recommend it to anyone!

Pros: The receptionists were nice

Cons: No privacy, mani-pedi people were rude, small changing room

Response from this business

We always welcome feedback (positive or negative). However, a few things need to be taken into account:
Posted on 04/13/2008
1) Parking is hardly ever easy in Manhattan, especially around 5th Avenue on a Saturday afternoon. There are several parking lots nearby that we can refer you to if you’ll be driving in. Mass transit (or taxis) is usually the most convenient way of getting around Manhattan. 2) That “nasty cream” referred to in this review is actually very high-end, very expensive product that is exceptionally effective at softening and moisturizing the skin. We don’t cut corners by using the cheap-stuff that many budget spas use. All the products used in our treatments have been specially selected after extensive testing and research. 3) Fridays-Sundays are the busiest days to come in. Those are the days when most people are off from work and accordingly, when we are most full. Off-peak times (Mon-Thurs before 5PM) tend to be more quiet. 4) We do beautiful silk-wraps and nail extensions but these are separate services offered in addition to our mani/pedi packages. Sincerely, The Ohm Spa Team
