    Waiting area
    Richie D.

    After much contemplation on whether or not to leave a review, I decided it may be best to warn others. I stopped by my normal go-to Asian massage spot, Evan's Relaxation Station on northern State Street, but the wait was outrageous. I was pressed for time and decided it would be best to go closer to home at this Little Rainbow Spa in Goleta. I walked in with one person in front of me. We waited for a few minutes until a gal who didn't speak English arrived to 'greet' us all flustered. Both the fella in front of me and myself pointed to what services we wanted on the price sheet. She waved us both to go to the back with her, and pointed him to a chair and me to a bed. They did not tell me whether to leave all my clothes on, take my shirt off, or remove all my clothes. I sat there for 7 minutes awkwardly without being spoken to. Once a gal arrive, she signaled for me to take off my pants and shirt. I did so and got under the sheet. She then began the massage not asking what type of pressure I'd like. I am a believer in deeper the better. Every 5 minutes she would ask "harder or too hard? in a broken accent." I attempted to speak English to her on multiple occasions but she simply shrugged. Throughout the entire massage she would begin in one area of my body, then move to another, then another but wouldn't repeat the same maneuvers on the opposite side of my body leaving me uneven. She kept exhaling exhaustively and then would laugh. When it was time to turn over, I realized it was because she was extremely hot and was sweating down her forehead. She was overheating and trying to apologize, but didn't know hot to in English. At that point she also wasn't putting her all into it. I really wasn't able to relax at all due to the inconsistency. Upon leaving, I went to pay in cash and she had to go to the back for change twice. I ended up leaving her a large tip because I felt bad that she has to work so hard in poor conditions. They should really have air conditions or at least a fan in the rooms. When I got home, I looked in the mirror to find a bruise on my forehead between my eyes due to the old bed not being properly padded and rubbing on my face. I can't say I'd recommend this place.

    Why does this place smell so strong of cigarettes? Was like Vegas casino. I had to leave without the massage.

    I love the $20/hour foot message. It is the absolute best deal in town. 10:00 am-12:00 everyday!

    ABSOLUTELY AVOID: Terrible Massage, Forced Tipping, and Highly Unprofessional Behavior…read more I am an experienced consumer of massage services and have never encountered such an appalling level of unprofessionalism. I strongly advise everyone to avoid this establishment. I scheduled a 60-minute massage and signage indicated the price was $70 if I pay cash. Upon entering the room, I asked if I should undress. The therapist spoke absolutely no English and there were no signs indicating what is customary or expected. Communication was impossible and nonexistent. It was also oddly silent, there was no music during the massage. Invasion of Privacy: While I was still in process of getting undressed, the therapist barged into the room and left the door wide open. I was fully naked and exposed. During the massage, the sheet she provided to go over me was the size of a pillowcase, or smaller. It did not adequately cover me and left my private parts exposed. Periodically during the massage, my therapist would stop treatment, open the door, and leave the room to greet a walk-in client, or yell back and forth with someone else who was in the building. I had my head opposite the door and could not tell when the door was open or closed, so I felt extremely exposed to anyone walking down the hall and had to try and adjust the tiny sheet provided for cover. Inappropriate Behavior: At the end of the massage, the therapist kissed my hands. She left so that I could dress, but entered the room again while I was still naked and dressing. She would not leave although I was still naked, and she very inappropriately wanted to "help" me get dressed. Subpar Massage: The massage itself was poor. The paper towel used on the face rest was scratchy on my face skin. The masseuse used an excessive amount of oil, and was actively pushing the massage table around the too-small room while I was on it--a jarring and unprofessional experience that ruined any chance of relaxation. The masseuse was not discreet with how the small sheet was used, she did not cover my private parts appropriately while she worked on different areas of my body. There were some very uncomfortable techniques used where she tried to pull my head up to arch my back. She did not seem to know what she was doing. Forced Tipping: The situation escalated dramatically after I paid $70 cash for the service, crossing the line from poor customer service into outright hostility--the masseuse immediately began demanding, "tip, tip, tip". I offered a $4 tip for the poor service received. The masseuse instantly confronted me, keeping her hand out and demanding more tip. A mandatory tip is bizarre, unethical, and something I have never heard of. This encounter was one of the most unprofessional massage experiences I have ever had. The lack of a properly-sized sheet, exposing my naked body by not covering my private parts and opening the door to my room during service, immodest behavior while undressing and dressing, delivering a poor service, and demanding an arbitrary "minimum tip," is unacceptable. The owner needs to be aware that their staff is openly insulting and aggressively alienating customers. AVOID at all costs.

    The worst massage I have ever had. First off before she even started the massage she asked for me…read moreto pay before. (Which should have been a red flag). I refused said I'll pay after the massage is done. Then she got started she over focused on my right shoulder, She rubbed super hard down my spine, I finally asked her to do my legs. As I asked if she was going full body? She left 3 separate times during my "60" minute massage to answer the front door due to customers coming in., which wasn't the problem, the problem was she left the door wide open and had me pretty exposed, I'm now in incredible pain after everything. Typically I have had a soreness after a good massage, but nothing beats the kind of pain I'm in. Do not waste your money...have no clue why there is a single good review on here..
