I have never had such a crazy experience at a spa before. So first off, I came in with a $110 dollar value Groupon and still had to pay an additional $25. The Groupon was for a "60 minute couples massage with facial", an appointment was made and granted we were about 10 minutes late, however upon our arrival we were informed that it was a 30-minute massage and 30-minute facial. My partner and I were willing to give up the facial just for a 60 minute massage, but they had us there arguing for 20 minutes and would not budge on the terms. Eventually we gave in. During the massage my partner had to keep asking for more pressure, which was applied for about half a minute before the masseuse went back to basically just rubbing the oil on her back. I asked my masseuse to just stay focused on my back as this is where I have pain, and she had the nerve to say that would cost me extra money and proceeded to massaging the back of my legs! Like what?? Who benefits from a 15 minute back massage? Come the end of the massage, we were so unhappy with our visit that we decided we did not want to leave a tip. The owner proceeded to chase us out of the establishment saying that we HAD to leave a tip. We did feel bad about this but I explained to the owner that we did not get the service we wanted. She said that there was nothing that could be done about the Groupon. That was one thing, I told her, but neither me nor my partner enjoyed the massage. I explained how I had requested they stay on my back and she said that the leg massage was apart of the massage and if they hadn't done it then I would have complained that I didn't get a good massage...I'm not sure what logic that is, but I apologized and told her that we paid for a service we didn't receive and that is all the money we wished to spend on that place. She said if we didn't have money to spend then we shouldn't have come. Totally not the point of what I was saying, but ok. A good business owner knows that the customer is always right and if you want tips and good reviews then you work with the customer to give them what they want, it's not about what you want. After engaging in this debate with me she proceeded to try and have the same debate with my partner. At this point we had wasted enough time in this place and I took my partners hand, said "I'm sorry, but no" and walked her away from this woman. She screamed behind us, "Fuck you!" Check out the pictures to find out the further BS we had to go through following this. read more
