The building felt rundown with wall paper peeling and chipped paint. The elevator felt like a coffin. The reception area was in fluorescent lighting!!! No ambience. The waiting room was dimmed, but still decorated in cheesy wicker furniture. The masage was decorated in mosquito netting hung from the ceiling particleboards. The massage was good but my massesus talked the entire time. After 45 mins, a tent was put over my body with piped in steam as I enjoyed a face massage. That was excellent. There was no locker room and only 1 shower so I had to leave my clothing on the floor in the bathroom. I also felt some sales pressure as my masseus kept on asking me when I was going to come back. All in all, I enjoyed the massage but I did not feel pampered or as relaxed.

Pros: steam tent, skillful

Cons: , ugly place, no ambience
