[QUOTE=Ral613;2156336]I'm in Oak Brook during the day. Have tried;.
1. The establishment at 817 E. Roosevelt Road. Great massage but no action as far as I can tell (anyone have a different experience?
2. Lily Massage at 619 W North Ave. Another great massage by very fit, muscular and hot lady. Some teasing and expect more for return customers (any feedback?
I have not yet tried;.
1. Foot Magic at 133 W Roosevelt Rd. Any input?
2. 565 Roosevelt Rd, Glen Ellyn, IL 60137.
3. 1202 Roosevelt Rd.
Any feed back on any of these? I'll keep you posted as I check them out.[/QUOTE]Foot Magic I have not tried.
565 Roosevelt & 1202 Roosevelt are standard AMPs with pretty good massage and the standard HE. Both places have middle age providers and not much past the standard ending is available. I am indifferent about repeating.
At Lilly Massage I saw Susan who gave me a great massage and average HE but it was ok. I would repeat but mostly just for the massage.

Thanks Joe. Tried the place in downtown LaGrange and it was a total waste of time. The massage wasn't even good.

The massage wasn't even good.[/QUOTE]I have not been to IVY Massage in LaGrange in over a year. The one time I did go was more than a total waste of both time and money. Not only was the massage bad, but she left the room at least 5 times to answer the phone and 1 time didn't even return for 5 minutes. I finally told her I had to go and that was 10 minutes before the hour was up. I left 1 penny as a tip right in the middle of the sheet on the table. Then about 10 minutes after I leave she calls me (she had my number from when I called to make an appt) and asks if I forgot some money on the table. I said no I didn't forget and that it was all hers and to spend it wisely. I'm an ass I know.
I would never repeat at this place.

Joe, great job. They have to realize they will get nothing for poor service, especially with so many spas around. Sometimes I wonder why they can't or won't understand something so obvious.
No the other thing I found out recently is appointments are not always honored. I called ahead for a girl at a place. I'm almost in the parking lot and I get a call saying the previous guy decided at the end of his 1 hour massage he wanted another hour. I said why didn't you tell him if he wanted 2 , he should have scheduled 2 hr to begin with. She had no answer. I said I'm not waiting another hour and told her to forget it.

Joe I tend to differ
I have to differ with what is said about both places on Roosevelt. Have been to both places a number of times. While I will agree with the endings I thought the massages were quite good. It has been awhile since the therapist actually spent time on my feet. And both post finish. Felt great. Am not really pleased about 565 location though.

Both owners have other locations so the girls can move around a bit. Could have also been the time of day as I went later at night and they could have been tired from doing 5-10 customers that day. Either way, they were both pretty good massages but not great and that's ok with me. I have also been to both places a number of times as well.

Very True DM
[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2160254]Joe, great job. They have to realize they will get nothing for poor service, especially with so many spas around. Sometimes I wonder why they can't or won't understand something so obvious.

I said I'm not waiting another hour and told her to forget it.[/QUOTE]I am not afraid to walk out without leaving a tip IF the service & attitude was bad. By attitude I don't mean being quiet because as you know some of the girls cannot speak English so they are quiet. On the other hand, I am more than happy to tip well (as you know from a couple of posts down LOL) for good service and the girls really appreciate that.
I have also had appointments not honored. One place told me to wait 30 minutes because of walk-ins so I left. If I take the time to make an appointment I expect them to honor it within reason and I don't think being 30 minutes late is within reason. Also sometimes the owners make them take the next walk -in even if that means making a customer who had an appointment late. They don't like to turn business away but making a customer who had an appointment late is just not good business.

[QUOTE=Ral613;2171219]It's all on the menu at 1202. PM if interested in provider.[/QUOTE]It may very well be "all on the menu" at 1202. I didn't try for anything extra but with the 2-3 I saw, I think I'll take a pass. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they were bad, but everything was just "average" and if I'm going to pay for "all" it, I want a little more than "average".
Thanks.

I have not been to 1202 in a long time. In all the times I was there, was just the standard menu and extremely average at best. But if times have changed there, that's good.

Appointments
[QUOTE=DMichaels69;2160254]Joe, great job. They have to realize they will get nothing for poor service, especially with so many spas around. Sometimes I wonder why they can't or won't understand something so obvious.

I said why didn't you tell him if he wanted 2 , he should have scheduled 2 hr to begin with. She had no answer. I said I'm not waiting another hour and told her to forget it.[/QUOTE]Had the same thing happen to me Wednesday. 15 minutes late. But at least the appointment girl called me and told me they had a walk in. And my massage girl, who I know personally, (and call and WeChat / Text with) sent me a text, apologizing. Then she called me and got me in only 10 minutes late. I suspect, I got the calls because I am a weekly regular at this place with this specific girl.
So I have no issue. Except wondering which of you guys it was!

AJ.[/QUOTE]Yo Joe. I didn't say it was a good idea, I just said it was "all on the menu". I went in at lunch and was expecting just the standard, so the offer caught me a bit by surprise. She wasn't bad, but not really my cup of tea and I was short on time.

I was just responding that like you, it was "not really my cup of tea" either based on what I saw also.
If it is all on the menu then that's great because it gives everyone more options.
I was agreeing with you.

Thats good customer service and I wish they were all like that. It really helps to be a regular.
