Lucky Spa. . . Yeah, me too.
Lots of recent reports, so I won't repeat, other than to say those reports are accurate and I agree that one could compare this place to Kim's Massage, in terms of the appearance of the girl I saw and others reported here. All the girls seem to be working to a similar "script" regarding naked TS, BBBJ (right IN the TS as well as in the room), and other services, so in that regard, they seem a bit MORE aggressive, flirty, teasing, and playful than how the sessions at Kim's (and Orange, Yoshiko, Crystal, Venus) seem to start out with a slightly more reserved approach (I, personally, [I][u]LIKE[/u][/I] the more aggressive approach). Lucky Spa [U]does[/U] have some unique business practices that make the "navigation" going in a lot different than the strikingly similar business practices among Kim's, Orange, Venus, Crystal, and maybe Yoshiko (see paragraph #3 for deets on that matter).
I too saw [B]Kimmy[/B]. She told me she's from Japan, by way of Hong Kong. Not being entirely certain exactly what that means, I can only guess that, perhaps, she's of Hong Kong Chinese descent, and her family may have relocated to Japan somewhere near the 1997 British lease expiration of that property and subsequent reversion to China rule. Frankly, all that really matters is that she 'does it' like a freakin' maniac and is really good 'it'.
On my visit, I had an older Mamasan, maybe early 40's, wearing a droopy oversized "Minions" TeeShirt. Through the small window in the vestibule, she asked if I had been there before, to which I said "[I]Not here, because I usually go to Yoshiko, but they were busy so I thought I'd see how this place compares.[/I]" I use that story for two reasons; so they know I'm used to, and expect, THAT level of service (I'm confident they know their very nearby competition), and to motivate them to do BETTER than Yoshiko and win my enduring loyalty. She asks "How long you want stay?" When I commit to a half hour, she says "Sixty dolla" which she wants right there through the window. Having paid THAT, she lets me in and leads me to Room #8. After I get in the room, Mamasan presses her head into the room (as if to keep her next comment somehow private) and says "Here, you tip girl" which I thought a bit odd, but ok, and I replied "[I]Oh yes, of course![/I]" Then she says, more directly "One Foty, ok!" (NOT as a question, but more as an imperitive statement), and I again said "[I]Of course[/I]". Frankly, I like that direct communication. It keeps some noobs from OVERPAYING, and it allows us, here, to state the rate pretty confidently such that none of our gentle readers need to wonder about such details (I really [I][b]HATE[/b][/I] wondering). A comment in this thread, below, has stated that when paying the additional 20 for the HOUR rate, then the 'tip' amount also goes UP by another 20. Since I've only been there one time, and for 30 minutes, I can't confirm that. That total rate would compare EXACTLY to what all those other local AMPs, named above, are consistently getting for full hour sessions, although I've not heard of any of those other AMPs taking LESS for a tip in a 30 minute session. That could be because they don't spell out the expected tip rate so clearly, and they're just "letting" us (me) go ahead and pay the full 160 tip even when staying for only 30 minutes. Frankly, I've not bothered to try a 30 minute session at Kim's, Orange, Yoshiko, Crystal, or Venus because I assumed I was only saving 20 bucks and I worried that service level might diminish in a 30 minute session (I don't think it does, but, again, I can't confirm).
[U][b]A Word on Parking[/b][/U]: There are exactly TWO parking spots directly in front of their storefront, with ALL other adjacent spots clearly marked as being for THOSE OTHER ESTABLISHMENTS ONLY. Having been there last Sunday afternoon, I found an open spot in front (not busy). By the way, the parking at Yoshiko, about a block east, was [U]totally[/U] empty, so I'm guessing Sunday afternoons may be a generally SLOW time for all of these places (compared to Friday mornings and afternoons being as busy as a Saturday at the Zoo). When I left, I drove around to the back of the buildings and found a lot of, generally, unmarked parking spots on the other side of the dirt / gravel alley running along the rear of the buildings. ONE of those spots (occupied) was marked SPA PARKING, but I didn't see any restrictions on the other 4--6 parking spots. Another report indicated customers still need to walk to the front, and that may be accurate, but I swear I saw a doorbell on the rear door and a sign that clearly indicated "Spa Entrance. " Since I didn't actually use that door, I can't verify the access. There is a couple of office parking lots about a half a block west, but I don't know how well they "monitor" their parking to possibly tow or ticket non-business-related cars. Alternatively, parking is permitted, although not very roomy, along the side streets to the east and a block north.
