I noticed Sophie advertising on Craigslist and after some checking found a website for Maison Massage. It is not so much a massage parlor as space rented out by a group of independents. Sophie seemed interesting and the rates were about average so I booked an appointment using a combination of email and about six SMS messages which was a little distracting while I was at work.
First Visit:
She said she normally only works until 5pm so I had to leave work 30 minutes early to make the appt. Not something I normally like to do. I arrived. But she was running late, no problem, so things worked out well. Although at the end of the appt. I learned she was at a friends birthday party. It bothered me, because it wasn't easy for me to leave early and I don't expect to re-arrange my work schedule around her personal life or business, because i'm the client. It doesn't work that way.
The session itself was good. I found that once I arrived I was happy to have waited. She is attractive, in a girl next door sort of way. I would not say beautiful as others have described. No money was discussed up front, she asked me what I wanted and then brought me a towel and showed me the shower. The salon is well decorated and comfortable.The service itself was good, and I found her quite attentive to my needs. She has good instincts, knows how to tease and please and her experience really showed. At the end of the session I left very satisfied and eager to book another appointment.
My Second visit (a few days later)
Anticipating another visit. I booked another appointment 2 days in advance by email
where I included the words "booking an appointment" and the date of the appt. in the title of the email and in the email on the second line of the body, I specified the date and time. She confirmed the appointment by sending a text message. I sent a follow up question the night before mentioning I will see her next day.The morning of the appt. I receive the email asking me what appointment I was referring to. I explain. She emails back saying she didn't read that part. Obviously this was a major oversight on her part. No apology, nothing. told me she would "let me know later". So I decided to go elsewhere.
In summary, (this is just my experience and opinion) but I won't waste my time with someone who can't be flexible in their attitude and schedule. Sophie is trying to do things cheaply, is extremely disorganized and it is not working and she expects people to work around her schedule. After some unpleasant emails from her, all I can say is, she doesn't care about her customers, yet she claims "she has so many". In my opinion, she has a prima donna attitude that is entirely undeserved. It's too bad, the service was good, it's a shame she can't do the customer service part required to keep a client for $120/hour. Buyer beware!
Looks: 7/10
Service: 7/10
Attitude: 2/10
Repeat: Not if you paid me.
