This was honestly the best massage I have ever had! I usually leave other massage places feeling like the pressure was not enough, even when I specifically ask for a very strong deep tissue massage. Mr. Sun was absolutely amazing — he didn’t just apply pressure, he truly understood my body and found all the right…

Being here about 10 years, but now I have to say goodbye. The communication is rude sometimes, but I did not give a complaint because the massage was fine. Until today I couldn’t get what makes the reception so unprofessional. I realize it is time to conclude my visits here.

Overpriced

Jay was excellent. I came in with a lot of tightness from desk work and workouts, especially around my neck, shoulders, and lower back. He was very professional, attentive, and clearly knew how to find the problem areas without making the massage feel too painful. He noticed a knot in my lower back and worked on it…

Even calling them to schedule an appointment was a terrible experience. I think she was talking to 3 people at the same time.

Extremely disappointing experience. I booked a one-hour deep tissue massage and unfortunately left without receiving the service because of how I was treated by the receptionist. From the moment I arrived, the receptionist was incredibly rude and dismissive. Another customer arrived after me for an appointment at the same time, but she was taken to a treatment room almost immediately while I was asked to wait another 10 minutes. When I asked if a female therapist was available, the receptionist told me, “You don’t get to choose anything as a ClassPass customer because you choose to pay less.” I was honestly shocked by how disrespectful and condescending this comment was. I completely understand if a specific therapist is unavailable, but there is a professional way to communicate that to a customer. Telling someone they are not entitled to make a basic request simply because they booked through ClassPass is completely unacceptable. I told her that if the spa is going to treat customers differently based on how they booked, they probably shouldn’t be on ClassPass. She simply shrugged her shoulders and said, “OK,” as if she couldn’t care less. At that point, I no longer felt comfortable receiving a massage there, so I left. What makes this especially disappointing is that I was actually looking for a new spa that I could visit regularly. I would have been happy to become a long-term customer if I had been treated with basic courtesy and respect. The issue was never about not being able to accommodate my preference for a female therapist. The issue was the receptionist’s attitude, the way I was treated differently from another customer, and the incredibly disrespectful comment she made to me. A business can have policies and limitations, but there is no excuse for making a customer feel unwelcome or inferior. Based on this experience, I unfortunately cannot recommend this spa.

Response from the owner · a month ago

Hello Angela, we’re truly sorry for your experience with our receptionist. While booking through third-party can come with conditions, it is no excuse to explain these limitations to client with unprofessional manners. I will personally be in contact with you to arrange an appointment because it wouldn’t be right to not receive the service you deserve. Again, please accept our sincere apologies and we hope you will give us a chance to show you the best service we’re known for. Thank you for your understanding.
