[QUOTE=Ginger Man]Historically, this has been, year in and year out, the gold standard of terrible spa experiences. I went two or three times a decade ago, and left once just disgusted. However, it has stayed in business, maybe it is better now.
You could always TOFFT?[/QUOTE]Lotus usually has some choices and you need to shop carefully before you place your order. I used to be a regular but stopped after a terrible experience a few months ago (and another bad experience long before that). I went back a few days ago. I rejected the 1st and 2nd girls. Mamasan just brought in the 3rd girl and said "Give me some money", in a very nasty tone. The 3rd girl was cute but mamasan was too nasty and I walked out (unescorted), mamasan bitched at me in Korean. As I walked away, I spotted a 4th girl at the candy dish, who was fat and sloppy. I was surprised that there were that many girls available.
When you get a good attendant, the place can be fine. It is hit and miss, just like most of the other places. I don't hesitate to walk out if I don't see something that looks good and acts friendly during the initial introduction. Mamasan can be nasty.
I'll stay away for a few months before I try that place again.
