I never write these reviews, but based on the fact that my fiance and I had the worst massages ever and I have had numerous massages in spas and professional massage therapists, I figured this warrants a write up. On top of all of that, my fiance spent $200 for us to spend some romantic quality time together, which was exactly the opposite of what happened.
After my fiance and I arrived 10 minute early and our appointment came and went. We were somewhat reassured that our massage therapists would be ready soon. It turns out they had booked one of them for a hot stone, which take 90 min, making her run 30 minutes late. Then we had to wait until they had set up the massage area and had to listen to one of them discussing how she would be late to the theater now. Very unprofessional!
On to the massages - We were asked whether any area was bothering us and we answered "neck, shoulders, and lower back." My fiance got more of a back massage than I did. My neck was barely touched and neither of us were massaged on the lower back. I love deep tissue massages. I get at a minimum 2 a year, since I carry my stress in my shoulders and neck. Now this massage was ROUGH not deep. It felt like our bones were being massaged rather than our muscles. In addition, my fiance's left hand was massaged TWICE but never his right hand. Needless to say my hands were not massaged. There was no kneading, just RUBBING?! Our legs were massaged for half the time in the SAME places over and over again, but not our upper thighs?!
After 45 Minutes NOT 60 Minutes we were told that we were all set and our masseuses literally JETTED. We never saw them when we were done and were not even provided the cup of water that is customary. Beware of Vera and Pollianetta!
Needless to say, something that was supposed to be a treat and romantic, turned out to be frustrating, dissapointing and PAINFUL!
Pros: Looks pretty
Cons: Bad service, HORRIBLE Massage!
