Nagoya CityWalk, ground floor, opposite SunBoss.

40k rp for wash, inclusive of shoulder massage.
80k rp for cut plus wash, inclusive of shoulder massage. Entire shop is full of IndoChinese, young and old. So, should have no language barrier. Not the cheapest around though...

Hi, sorry to post this unrelated question, just want to hear from people out there .
my neighbor just came back from batam. becos of the hotel poor maintenance of their some out door requirements. his kid leg was hurt.
do you think is reason to ask the hotel to compensate meal, at least a decent meal(lunch) as they were delay on their ferry back as the kid need some medicate attention in the local hospital?

Room is good, big and spacious. No smell from the door yet or any other equipment.

Overall experience from Sakura / Zen Wellness: 7/10

Walked into Zen Wellness Spa, already served by 2 beautiful ladies.
One of them so "cute" until can tell me directly 600K SVIP package includes HJ in front of all our fellow Singaporeans at counter. Super Malu.
(Maybe I got "Tee-Ko-Peh" face, so can't blame her")

Then she arranged one nice ML for me who served me well during the massage.
(Not guaranteed about the other massage ladies hor...)

Again, please don't compare to high end / atas massage place and start criticizing here and there. We paid price of "shrimp", got service at "prawn" level good enough, cannot expect lobsters servings.

=====================================
The drive wasn't as long as felt - bcs I was excited. We drove along the road thru the bridges.
Imagine driving on such a main road; no turns, no detours.... and then see this :

Thank you for this series of posts, with photos and details. It has been really an eye opener!

I went there 2 years back for new year eve with family and you can see many people playing with fireworks at their rooftop, you can buy and play with it too.

Don't even think about it.

Just wanted to share my recent experience on 24/12 @ octopus spa. Did some research and happen to stumble on this forum and read thru a few pages. a few bros here suggested that delta and octopus was the best 2 for massage and specials. decided to try out octopus since its near where im staying.

Here comes the best part went in at round 4-5pm and the place was nearly empty (which is a good thing i guess?) the lady in the hall explained to me the services and charged me around 700k for therapy 2. she then line up the girls and asked me to choose.maybe the lighting wasnt so good but all of them looked grumpy so i picked the only 1 that had a big smile.

Name:dont remember
looks:6/10 more on the fleshy side, boobs around a c?
service:5/10 did a back massage before proceeding to the main event but didnt do a fj (though it was my fault since my member and i seems to be sleepy or maybe the room was really cold and i was shivering) instead did a bj and i came quickly(it was my first time!)
we washed up and ended the session at around 45mins.she asked for tips and was really happy when i handed her 50k.
overall:5/10 (keep in mind that i have 0 experience so i dont really have a benchmark to compare against)

Sorry for the lengthy essay, as mentioned i am a newbie in this area so i just went with the flow of stuff happening and didnt know what to expect. any advice for this poor newbie for his next trip will be greatly appreciated!!
