I've been coming to this place for over 10 years now and this place is fantastic! Quiet, good amenities, nice staff and the food is tip top!
Very very disappointed with this place. Had a horrible recent visit. The spa was broken - hot tub was not very hot and the jacuzzi was completely broken. The women working there told us. Fan system also not working. I had driven from 1 hour away on my precious afternoon off from work, so I still tried to use the spa for about 1.5 hours. It was incredibly unrelaxing, however; on the way out, there was a man who had to come in to fix the system amongst all of the naked women. The woman running the place tried to keep the man coming in and out only when the women were dressed and tried to keep naked women from coming out while he was fixing the system, but it was INCREDIBLY unrelaxing - not to mention that it made me late because I had to wait to change until all of the many women who had just entered the dressing room put on enough clothing for the maintenance man to walk back through. When I asked the front desk on my way - kindly - if they would be willing to give me a pass to come back when the jacuzzi and spa (heat) were working and there was not a maintenance man there, they refused and did so with absolutely NASTY attitudes. They didn't even apologize for the experience. They refused to give me any money back and they refused to give me a pass to return at another time. They accused me of trying to take advantage of THEM because I stayed for 1.5 hours. I explained that it was my only day off and I traveled from far away to get there, but the experience was incredibly unrelaxing and not what I paid for. They basically screamed me out the door as I kept my cool and expressed that I didn't think this was right. This is a big loss to me; I enjoyed coming to this place. I can never return or recommend it to anyone after this experience, however. They were unkind, rude, and unprofessional. I do not recommend.
Love this place! Great massage and day access to jacuzzi, steam room, cold plunge and sauna. Great price and clean facilities. I always leave feeling relaxed and recharged. If you are used to Bathhouse or spa castle, this is not that. No frills, family owned I believe. Not over the top, overpriced or overcrowded.
$30 Entry Fee is not bad; Up from$25; They had $25 fee for at least 15yrs. Still a GREAT Place to relax & DETOX!!! 🤮. Staff is Great even though they speak little English. Everything is provided for you to shower and bath and sleep 😴
I really wanted to love this place, but my massage yesterday left me in a lot of physical pain today. The therapist didn't seem to listen to my feedback regarding the pressure, and the session felt rushed and aggressive rather than therapeutic. I am still hurting today. I hope management takes extra care to ensure therapists are checking in with their clients' comfort levels.
