I read these same reviews and ignored the negative ones thinking it was just an isolated case. I purchased 2 living social coupons for a massage for me and my husband. I was the first one to go to my appt. Upon coming in the door, my first thought was ""what the heck did I get myself into"". The place was a DUMP! I agree with the other reviews 100% that Ava's website was deceptive and a total scam! No way were those massage pics taken at this place! There was a woman employee eating stinky food in the front. The massage room looked like a renovated closet. I asked where the lights were and there was no response. The only light was from the cracks in the drop down ceiling. I was told to hang my clothes on the hanger but the hangers didn't have a bar across the bottom so I had to set my pants on my shoes on the floor. Barely any room to walk around. Gross & dingy shaggy throw rug under the massage table. Massage was nothing more than the gal rubbing a tremendous amt. of oil all over . Her forearms were really hairy and she was sliding it all over my back and I was so grossed out and it felt scratchy & terrible. The music was super loud and I could still hear the other 2 employees on the other side talking to each other the whole time! When my hubby went to his appt. the following week, he showed up and they told him they were about to call him to reschedule as his massage therapist wasn't coming in! He said the place looked shaddy and the same African American woman was eating in the front again and it smelled! I called Living Social to complain and was happy to find out that I could still get a REFUND on my husband's unused coupon. Unfortuntately, I wasted the $32 coupon on my ""massage"". STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AND CALL LIVING SOCIAL TO GET YOUR REFUND !!!!\r

If you don't believe the negative reviews, then go ahead and check out this place and you will see for yourself. The only reason why there is such an increase of negative reviews is because Living Social offered the massage deals a few months ago so many people who have never heard of this place bought the coupons and quickly found out after going there that's it's a dump.
