Venue location, accessibility, atmosphere and cleanliness
Street‑front shop with large glass frontage where masseuses sit at the desk and can be seen from outside.
Interior rooms are simple and dimly lit, usually with a mattress or doona on the floor rather than a table.
Overall vibe is functional rather than luxurious, but generally kept tidy and suitable for short sessions.

Hot towels and wet wipes commonly used for cleanup at the end of sessions.

Thai massage therapists, with ages mostly mid 20s to late 30s.
Varied masseurs from very slim size‑4 spinners to curvy builds.
Looks range from girl‑next‑door and Eurasian‑looking through to heavily enhanced “barbie” style, with few tattoos reported.
Services and experience
Massages range from basic to quite decent, often more sensual than strongly therapeutic.
Extras on offer include hand relief, nude hand relief, body slides and full service, depending on the provider.

Pricing and extras
Base fees commonly $55 for 30 minute bookings.and $85 for 60 minute bookings.
Extras usually $100–$300 depending on provider and service level, with standard tiered menus (HJ, NHJ, BS, CBJ, FS).
Some upselling from body slide reported; prices sometimes negotiated down slightly for bundled extras.
Service flow and timing
Typical pattern is 10–30 minutes of massage before discussion of extras and main erotic activities.
Most bookings run close to the paid time, with some providers finishing with extra massage or head rubs.
Late‑evening visits may see lighter massage or shorter tease if staff are covering shifts or close to closing time.
Overall customer experience
Reviews describe a wide range of experiences from “perfunctory but okay” through to “good time, no regrets”.
Chemistry and boundaries differ strongly by masseuse, so punters often recommend particular girls rather than the venue as a whole.
Many reviewers are open to returning to try different providers, while only “maybe” returning to specific masseuses.
