We booked for a girlfriend's birthday after looking all over the internet for a spa that would suit our "spa party" needs - that in itself was a hard task! Not that many spas out there that accomodate "spa party" type groups.
EO was very accomodating to each one of our wishes - some did packages, some did individual services. We asked if we could bring in pasties and drinks to celebrate our bday girl and they were more than accomodating and even had an area for us to congregate together btwn spa services. Sometimes, our g/f's can be loud and obnoxious (you know how girls are!) and at times we thought we might be too loud or offensive to others in the spa, but the staff at EO told us we were fine and to go ahead and have a good time! That was nice :-)
I have to agree with one of the prior reviews, my massage wasn't the best I'd ever had. In fact, it was mediocre, at best. It was like petting an animal, very superficial, no working of the muscles at all. My massage was supposed to be a hot stone also, though it didn't sounds nearly as bad as the other reviewers experience:) Unfortunately, not long into the massage, I was beginning to to think that the stones were more so getting in the way for my masseuse than enhancing the massage:-( Bummer.
Other than the massage itself, we had a great time. My other services were nice and relaxing, and we didn't mind the "older bldg" at all. In fact, I rather liked it better than say a stuck up, hoity toity spa. The prices were very reasonable. All in all, I think we'll definitely go back again... I just need to be more specific with my wishes on my massage experience!
Pros: Attentive staff, very unpretentious and down-to-earth
Cons: Older bldg, massage did nothing for me
