Mimi
[QUOTE=GottaGo; 1843919]Since my regular wasn't available, I requested Mimi. She was the first person I tried at NMS when I first went about a year ago. It was probably the best experience I had at an AMP. This experience, not so much.
The TS was up to par. Not great, but not terrible. The massage was average. Not great, not terrible. The flip was the disappointment. Very mechanical and limited enthusiasm. After everything was complete, I gave her the typical. 4 tip. Has this changed? She put her hand out and gave a sound,"mmmm?". I said,"Has the standard price gone up?" She of course couldn't understand a single word I said."Did I give you less than 40?" She still had her hand out at this point. I then just gave her a dirty look of disappointment and her tone changed quite a bit. Probably worried that I was going to say something to her superior.
The fact that she asked for more money didn't bother me however. Can't knock the hustle. I have been known to give more than the standard, but obviously have no interest in tipping beyond the standard for very average service. She deserved the standard.[/QUOTE]Here is a prime example of why most of us state that "YMMV" when discussing a provider, as my experiences are 180 degrees from yours.
I've seen Mimi probably for as long as she has been at NMS, and she is one of only 3 girls that I see on a regular, rotating basis; as with many guys, when a provider is found with whom you are comfortable, and she with you, it make sense to stay with her, as the experience is always good: she knows my likes and dislikes; and I, hers. Variety may be good for some people, but I prefer to stay with the "tried-and-true."
My time with her from day one, has always been enjoyable. I find her to be intelligent, witty, affectionate, and a bit coy, which only adds to the enjoyment of the session. She really has a great sense of humor, once you get to know her.
I like all of her skills just as they are, but obviously, you and I have different ideas of how skilled she is, but let me hasten to add that I respect your differing opinion.
My analysis of her with an outstretched hand and demurely saying "mmmm," is, in my evaluation of her personality, her showing you her coy side. She's not going to ask you outright for a larger tip, but the gesture and sound you experienced, is her hoping you will increase what you had given her. And she is not unique in this regard, almost all of the AMP providers I have known over the years, FS and not, and even strippers at the clubs, try to get more. It's the name of the game, is it not?
I find it odd that you feel that she does not understand English, since as I already mentioned, she and I talk about many things. Ageed, she does not understand every word, but she understands enough so that she does not look at you like a deer whose gaze is frozen by the glare of headlights! Granted, her conversational English is fair, but that's half the fun of having a conversation with someone that is not proficient in the Mother Tongue; trying by gestures, and yes, even sign language, to make them understand. After all, IMHO, some of the time spent with these ladies ought to be spent enjoying them as a human being as well as that of a woman, breaking down the language barrier if needed, to do so. You might be surprised to discover just how enjoyable they can be when not performing a massage.
In summation, sorry to read of your less than stellar experience with Mimi.
And again, I state that YMMV with any provider, it is something we all run into pretty much on a regular basis.

Standard tip
[QUOTE=MikeWilliams88;1844339]GottaGo CHECK or TRY ADMIRAL SPA to feel the DIFFERENCE. Maybe the ONE, DOWNTOWN or FAR EAST to see how BIG of smile from the staff when you give a standard TIP.[/QUOTE]You are not going to get a SMILE from any of the girls at these places if all you leave is a standard tip, young man.
I can attest to that from personal experience, and, over the years, I have been a visitor to all of those places that you have mentioned.
Instead, what you are going to be looking at is a scowl from the provider, and, as you leave, some words in Korean that I am pretty sure are curses from the mamsan, as she quickly shows you the exit. I discovered that even a small $20 tip over the standard fee will bring a smile to the provider, assuming she is worth it. I have also had the misfortune to have an absolutely horrid provider too; in this case, even the standard fee seems like too much. Fortunately, such experiences for me at least, have been rare.

I agree. I sometimes give my ATF a massage for a night off.
I also go for an hour sometimes to just sit and talk and get to know them.
You would not believe how much that gets you in the end.
Little things go a long way. Number one is being clean, clean, clean before you go.
Glad your back Rei

[QUOTE=MikeWilliams88;1840765]You can visit NMS and ask for ANGIE or SANDRA for excellent English and great personality. JULIE, MAY and MIMI can carry some small talk too plus NMS is SOO DIFFERENT NOW then couple of years ago. Good luck.[/QUOTE]CoCo and Sunny have good English skills and there service is top rated on these boards.

[QUOTE=Worgent6;1841642]I have always been curious, just what do you guys consider 'busy time' of day? I've been to AMPs on weekends, weeknights, week days so IMHO would have to say the least busiest time is a weekday mid morning? First thing in the morning you get the 'early comers', noon you might get the guys taking a break over lunch and after work is always busy. For us guys with families late in the evening is not an option so I've never tried any AMP after 8pm to know if pickings are better then? I'm interested in yours and others opinions. W.[/QUOTE]The slowest times for a AMP is 5 pm to 7pm you can have your pick at that time.

Slowest times
I beg to differ. In my experience 5-7PM is peak time. So is 12:00 - 1PM. Good bets are 11:00 AM & 2-4PM and, depending on the establishment, after 8PM. Other factors include weather, holidays, and day of the week, etc. A high percentage of AMP mongers are married so you need to figure, when can that person likely get away for an hour. Seems to me that lunch hour and immediately after work are prime time for married guys. Single guys can do the 8-11PM without trouble. Another factor is "game time", if the Bruins, Sox, Celtics or Pats are playing, its a decent bet thing are slower at your nearby AMP.
ARG.

If your in the area just drive by one of the local AMP`s.
There are always trends like. Fri, Sat nights from 9:30 to 11 usually slow time.
Guys are at clubs and such. Then when they get out they hit the AMP`s for last call.
That`s just my observation.

Admiral Spa
Well, I got stood up this morning by a provider in MA that I had arranged to see a couple of days ago. I made a quick decision to head to Providence. Called Mamasan on the way and got voice mail. Left a message, no call back. Got to within 2 blocks away and it was 8:40 AM so I called again. Sylvia answered. She remembered me and and said I was 2 minutes away and wanted to see Coco. She said that Coco had a customer at 9:15 and wouldn't be free until 10:15. She said to come and park and she'd keep me company while I waited. She said you take sauna, relax, read a magazine. I did everything I could to try and convince her to give me Coco and give the 9:15 appointment someone else. I hoped that she wouldn't do that and she was very adamant that she wouldn't ever do that.
Then she said why you don't see Sunny? Now, I've read forever about Sunny. I've been going to this location for years. I'd never seen Sunny despite all of the raves. I said No, Mama kept trying and even brought Coco in tell tell me to see Sunny. So I did. All I can say is that Sunny was the all around combination of the cutest, happiest, most playful, enjoyable women I've ever been with in any AMP! I can't believe that I didn't have the experience with her until today. Just amazing.

I've been seeing her regularly for quite some time and she never fails to surpass the previous visit. After my recent horrible visit there with Bonnie I ventured back to see Sunny. Had a brief talk with Mama about the last visit and why it wasn't good. Then Sunny took me away for over ninety minutes of absolute heaven. I am starting to think that it's almost worth having a bad experience there just so I can have Sunny make up for it next time.
I haven't yet seen Coco for a massage but have seen her in the hallway at Admiral so I know what she looks like and she looks hot. I'd like to give her a try and probably will the next time I call and Sunny isn't available.

Opulence
Went there again and did not have a good time. I have never had an issue there but did read that it is now who you see. I saw shannon, good looking but no touch or anything naughty; left unhappy. I think I will cross them off my list. Too bad I was misinformed that it would be a good place.

Not cool.

Sunny & Coco
I can't believe that it took me until today to see Sunny. I do like Coco, a lot, but after being with Sunny today I'm not sure that anyone else would tempt me to travel to RI. If you say that each visit is better than the one before I'd better get some heart medication!

There are and always be some that up sell but there the exception and even then with a standard tip all is well. In the many years I have been in this, there are few if any providers that still exist. The small shops owned by older providers ya but you ddon't get much from them. Some of the mamasons of the larger places are still around but the girls never more than a year or two if even that. Not worth over tipping. .4 For HJ 1. 4 For FS, a BJ can be. 8 Or 1. 00 In some places but at OS or FE they are FS places so I tip that even for a BJ. Save your money and add pennys for next viset.
