Stopped by Bella gente yesterday. Lexi was available. Massage was average. The flip was very lackluster. She's very cute in her pics but not worth repeat. She did not get comfortable at all. She asked about the tip on the flip. Damage 40/40.

Has anybody been there in the last couple weeks? Someone told me they went by there and it was all closed up. I could use a good ass rub. Giving and receiving.[/QUOTE]Short answer, yes was there yesterday. Long answer with lots of detail was in a report I tried to put up at 8 am this morning. Hit upload button and got 'thank you for report' message but it never showed up.

I know Joy has been reviewed before but the search doesn't seem to be turning anything up, at least under her name. Just looking for a few details from those who've partaken, including out the door donation.

Will allow roaming and will also strip down as requested.

Will strip down and body slide! 60/40. Will repeat.
Well, took the plunge and went to Joy. Went 60/40. Was lining up to be my new fav, great massage, good teasing, ass play. Then she started in on "more tip, more tip. " I said that's what I had. "Usually 100 tip. " Uh, no. Wouldn't even drop the dress, but allowed roaming under the dress on the flip. Finished me off once. "Ok you go work bring me more tip. " Yeah I'll get right on that. Looked at the clock. Per the usual with these places, paid for an hour, got a half. So instead of repeat business she got an extra 20. Good for her I suppose.
Other massage places should take a page out of the book used at this place! Love the no upsells, and the comfortable atmosphere. I dreamed of Anita, and my dreams are very relaxed, almost weak in the knees relaxed. Paid the door fee and tipped the same for services that I have not found elsewhere.
Massage was good, not great, but the flip. .....wow.
YMMV with all MP Ladies. I've never had an issue with Joy. Always 60 hr and 40 tip. Never shorted on time and total Nude. She is licensed and does a real Thai massage. But, I'm a regular and have know her for years. If I had to find an issue with her it would be that she calls me a lot to see if I want to see her. A Hobby Phone solves that issue.
If you aren't a regular and don't want to be hassled about a tip, I would agree with The Captain that Pacific is a good place to start.

NJ.[/QUOTE]Oh of course, I know everyone's experience can be different. I think I will try again, this time though act with normal negotiations rather than just assume my experience will be the same. She's a business woman, after all, none of us mean a damn thing except the cash we bring.

Lastly, try to make sure the bathroom has soap in that blue or black whatever for men container and am refering to the branch of 44th street as it happened to my buddy last month I believe.
After reading a review of Relax Spa on 28th, that included a detailed account of FS with DATY and lots of satisfaction, I decided to check it out myself. I am not an overtly experienced massage enthusiast, but the review of Relax was so effusive and complimentary, I needed to check it out. I entered the joint, with no sign and an ominous purple light, and saw a gaggle of various Chinese women of different ages. I glanced into a room off to the side and see a fat Italian man sitting in a room looking like an extra in the Sopranos (confusing). I asked if they took credit cards and they did. A younger, somewhat unrefined young woman led me to the room. She had a fit body and was cute. We discussed price and she asked me to pay ahead of the massage. I asked about tip and she said $45 for 30 minutes and $40 for nude massage. I was stupid and paid upfront. I got undressed and laid on the table. She whispered something unidentifiable to me and left the room. A few minutes later after some shouting in Chinese a woman enters the room and begins rubbing me with a towel on my back (never a good sign). I gently caress her leg and feel a silky yoga pant only to find it was a different girl. Older. Late 40's. Not the girl I met at the door. The massage was awful, but I continued to caress her and see if it would get better. After a firm ass grab, she flips me over and I ask if she would get nude. Her English was almost non-existent and it was a struggle to communicate. I went back and forth with her explaining I had already tipped for what I thought was a nude massage, and she kept debating me. Her lack of English and weird behavior kept reiterating the fact that I was paying to have some sex-traffic victim, rub my joint for a few seconds of bliss. It was one of the most non-sexual experiences I have ever had, and a few times I actually almost got up and left. She ended up giving me an awkward, forced, not-sexy handy and let me roam in one of the most shitty ways possible. I left feeling mildly disgusting, guilty and generally shitty about the whole exchange. I am an adult and realize that this industry and those in it are not on top of the world so to speak, but having to see how rough the trade is, laying naked on a table is a real boner buster. I am a fit, 30 something dude with a high sex drive so I enjoy the occasional massage, but when the experience is as bad as the one I received at Relax, it makes me think I need to readjust my priorities.

Avoid. Hard.

Sorry about your bad experience. These bad experiences seem to occur more often when service is pre-paid. I think providers attitudes goes to, well I've been paid how fast can I get through this session, from I'd better do a good job so I get tipped well and he will return. I personally never tip til the end, and seem to get closer to my full time and a decent MS and HE as a result.
I was wondering if I could ask my fellow enthusiasts for a new place to try out a massage. I have sampled a few places (and have read many reviews on other people's experiences) and was wondering where I should go next. I'm open to going to any area of greater Grand Rapids and trying out new masseuses as well. I was hoping some of you could pm me with your recommendations.
Thanks.
