I read alot of good reviews so I decided to check the place out. It had fair prices and the decor is super cute although there were alot of exposed piping. However, I feel like I could have gone somewhere better. I started off with a massage with Jen. The room was relaxing but you could hear the Boston traffic and sirens outside. Jen's technique was really good, but she spent so much time on arms and legs, that I literally only had 5 minutes done on my back. I thought the back was the main part of the massage? I mentioned that I had wanted my back worked on, and I barely was given any attention to that area. She was friendly and chatting with me, but I really just wanted to relax and sleep. She would talk and would momentarily pause to talk with her hands which was annoying! I'm sure she doesn't do it all the time, but that was just my experience with her.
My facial with Deanna wasn't anything to rave about. I had the deep pore cleansing facial and it was my first one ever. If you ever had an extraction done on your face, you know that it can be quite painful. She started the extraction w/o warning knowing that I've never had it done before. Also, when I was getting the mask and the steamer, she would either leave the room or sit down and flip through magazines. I would think that I'd recieve some sort of massage during that time!
I also got a french mani/pedi and those came out good.
I paid for my services by credit card, and tipped by cash. When I went home, I saw that they had charged a 20% tip on my credit card as well! They said their machine automatically does that and it will take the 20% tip off within 24 hours, but I believe they should have told me about that beforehand.
Overall, the place was not worth it and would not go to again!!
Pros: decor, friendly staff
Cons: quality of service
