On May 16 I booked myself my very first spa day for May 25 at 2pm. I promptly received an email saying my appointment changed to 1pm. I arrived to the spa at 12:45pm and I was greeted (not so nicely) and told that my appointment is for 2 not 1. I showed her my email and she told me - oh it looks like they had to bump my appointment down to 2pm to accommodate the previous client and her treatments. “I don’t know why they didn’t tell you”. I was informed the person doing my treatments would be done soon and can still see me right away. I waited a few more minutes and the girl comes to me and again says “your appointment is for 2pm” I said no. It’s for 1pm…she then says “oh so you want to sit in the hammam longer” I said no I want my appointment to begin on time. She then walks me down the hall and I specifically ask if I will be having to wait for an hour for her. She said no of course not. I am then instructed to undress and brought to the hammam. Without much instruction or discussion besides her asking if I’ve been there before which I tell her no, she said she will be back to check on me in the steamroom in 15-20 minutes. 40 minutes goes by and she comes in asks if I’m ok, I say I’m ok…And she says ok and leaves for another 15 minutes. At that point I am extremely hot and have a headache despite drinking 2 bottles of water. She comes in and I tell her as such and she says ok. 5 more minutes. And leaves for close to 10. The treatment itself was ok/nice but such poor communication and professionalism (specifically towards how the appointment was handled, not the treatment). At the end after the 3 hours I go to the front to pay and am greeted by the coldest receptionist, I mention that when I booked the price wad $185 and if they could honour it as they increased pricing to $195 barely looks at me as she hands me the machine to pay and I leave. I am extremely disappointed and underwhelmed by how I was treated. Will not return nor recommend.
TLDR: poor appointment management and communication. Do not recommend.
