Affordable Spa

I frequent this spa regularly, and for all that it offers I feel that I get my money's worth every time. You will find the same knowledable professionals as found at high end spas, only without the 'trimmings' (ambiance (no waterfall backdrops here, LOL), emaculent facilities, mint condition towels, robes & slippers (I sometimes bring my own)). Their long hours of operation are also a plus (11am - 11pm)!
I've also gone to spas that have all of the trimmings, and once the tension returns in my back and shoulders, the thought of the next time I'd be able to afford the $400 or so to go back again is nothing less than depressing. The Emerald Spa is a nice trade off, and for nearly half the price I can get the same spa treatments, and with the added use of what they refer to as the 'Spa Facility' package (sauna, steamroom, pool, jaccuzzi) for a small fee, I can feel like a queen for a day. I often see folks come in and just pay to use the Spa Facilities...this alone has me sold on this place.
Sure, there's some things I think they could improve on, but they are minor things as mentioned earlier by 'trimmings'. Some how knowing that I can have a day at the spa even when funds are low makes me feel good. And when funds aren't low, I can always go back to one of the higher priced spas with all of the trimmings. Thing is, I haven't gone back....I'd just as well treat myself to an extra service at the Emerald Spa that I ordinarily wouldn't get with the money saved.
Pros: Hours of operation; Optional use of spa facility for an additional small fee; overall prices
Cons: Ambiance; old robes, slippers & towels

Really, really weird and eh

My partner and I went here 2 years ago so forgive the tardiness but I had an early appointment and they were far from ready for us. One of the therapist was an older man with really hair arms, breather extremely hard making it impossible to relax and was wearing what looked like a bathrobe. Overall for a few dollars more I would have rather went to a better spa. It just wasnt worth the $10 difference
Pros: I think they offered parking
Cons: It just didnt seem at all like a spa; professionalism, ambiance and skill were well below average

Cons: Can't find any
