i had a wonderful massage with zara. AMAZING is all i can say. I highly recommend it, she is a great masseuse and i WILL be back to have another one soon. Thanks again.
the cocktails were good but the bill had so many inconsistencies when we went to pay. the manager WAS rude to his staff when trying to fix the bill and it left a sour note.
