About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This spa provides a traditional Korean-style bathhouse (Jjimjilbang) experience with a diverse selection of saunas and thermal facilities. Spa-goers consistently note the well-maintained saunas kept at comfortable, right temperatures, ideal for relaxation and sweating. The venue features multiple distinctive dry sauna environments, including a popular Hwangto (Yellow Clay Ball) room and a Himalayan Salt Room, both designed for detoxification. Guests describe the clay ball sauna as intensely hot and effective, allowing for significant sweating in a short duration. The men's area includes a hot pool, a cool pool, and a small steam room, though guests note the hot pool can be very hot and the steam room has limited capacity. A traditional Korean-style bathhouse is also available with water temperatures described as just right.
Atmosphere
The spa maintains an impeccably clean and well-maintained environment, described as having an old-fashioned charm. The overall atmosphere is relaxing, stress-relieving, and spacious, creating a cozy ambiance where guests feel their stress melting away. The main communal area allows for relaxation between thermal experiences.
Pricing
Spa access and services are offered à la carte. An admission fee provides access to sauna facilities, with specific mentions of a $40 admission for two saunas and a nude sauna. Combined service packages are available, such as sauna access with a 90-minute deep tissue massage for $150, with gratuity and taxes separate. The spa has also offered deals through Groupon, such as a massage for two with hot stones for $159.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed. Many guests report experiences with very kind, professional, and thorough massage therapists, with specific praise for a therapist named Donna. Some guests, however, report instances of staff rudeness, particularly regarding tipping etiquette at the front desk.
Additional Amenities
The primary additional service highlighted is the professional massage therapy, including options for Korean Body Scrubs, Wet Oil Massages, and hot stone treatments. A juice bar was previously available but has since closed.
