Rose Massage Piedmont Road
Saw this place mentioned on the board and I was staying less than 10 minutes away so I thought I'd TOFFT and check it out. Pretty big disappointment!
Entry is 60 and then there's a 10 buck upcharge for everything: deep tissue, special oil, and even the table shower. Surprised clean towels didn't cost extra too. So if you accept all those things, you're looking at 90 dollars before anything interesting happens. Heck, for 10 bucks more you can have a nice 4-hand at Great Wall (but only in the past -- sad thoughts).
The place is very clean, fresh paint, everything nice but that price is ridiculous and completely not worth it, I'm sorry to say. With one exception, the gals I saw looked quite ordinary and the massage was fine but not exceptional. Price should be 50 and if they want to charge 10 for the fancy Vichy style table shower, fine. JMO, of course.
About halfway through the massage I was thinking I might end up having to go someplace else afterwards, but that didn't end up being the case. That part was maybe barely slightly above average but still nothing spectacular or out of the ordinary. Tip was left to my discretion, though it was suggested that it should be "good" if I was made to feel good. So that part is up to you.
Not recommended unless you really, really want to get a massage in very close proximity to the Longhorn's steak place or the Lindbergh MARTA station.
I would possibly suggest giving it a try if you're in the subset of people who like (d) a gal named Emma from Sisi Massage in the the big shopping center off Cobb Parkway in Marietta. I never sampled her there but I did admire what looked like a very nice set under her sweater. I saw her in the lobby at this place on the way out. I might be tempted to return to this overpriced shop to find out for sure, though I fear I would have to pay dearly for it.
Aside from that, thumbs down. Save your money until they lose all the upcharges.
