Great people here. Real nice. Took the time to explain to me the difference in the beds and how they work. Suggested times I should use to get started. Even offered to break me off a piece of their Aloe Plant if I over did the tan. Got a punch card too that you can collect visits on so you can get a free visit if you don't want to do a monthly thing.
