BJNYC got a reaction from Capitano in Giiovanni In NYC
I would not recommend. Below average experience and tries to upcharge throughout.

More squabbling about tips. Maybe everyone should mind their own business on the matter.
I will say, without referencing the specifics of the above thread, there is a plethora of masseurs in this town who have no idea what they are doing and should get ZERO tips, which might encourage them to do themselves and everyone else a favor by finding an alternative line of work. Compensation should reflect ability and performance. Massage budgets should go to guys who are interested in and are good at their jobs. The incompetents should be weeded out by marketplace feedback, including no tips.

Andrey teases but expects a tip that is normally given for extras.

BJNYC reacted to Central_Premise in 411 on New Spa: Noble Men’s Spa
Booked this place using a $40 discount code on their website and when I went to pay they demanded I write a positive review in their presence to get the discount. Nowhere on their site requires a review for the code to be applied. At any rate, it wasn't about the money, it was really about the principle. I refused to leave a review on google so I just paid full price and told them I won't be returning.
Space: their space is an office building; pretty tastefully decorated and almost zen feeling (I'll give them that).
Massage: the massuer didn't even mentioned his name nor did I ask. He was definitely not someone I would personally choose. However, he had excellent technique but really terrible breath. I was thankful that my face was down the entire time.
I do not recommend this place!!!!

BJNYC reacted to BeefyDude in Helpful hints when posting
Being on this site for many years now, I have seen many posts that:
1. Ask about multiple masseurs in a single post
2. Ask for recommendations in a city (without sharing what they are looking for)
3. Replies referencing a masseur not even mentioned in the original post
IMHO it would probably easier and better if you stuck to 1 masseur per post. The reason being: with multiple people mentioned it can be difficult to know who someone is commenting about. I have seen replies where no name is mentioned - so which one are they responding about?
When posting an open ended question about a city you are visiting, include some interests/what you are looking for. This might help get better/more responses
I'm NOT calling anyone out. These are just helpful hints based on what I have seen over the years. The intent is to help others get more (and helpful) responses. I'm not sure if there is a section or post here for newbies and/or how to get the best results when posting (if not maybe a good idea)?

BJNYC got a reaction from Kosmo in NYC - AlexSpot24
Massages are strictly therapeutic even though they hint that they are not.

I have to say, the quality of the masseurs has gone down quite a bit at New paradise. It used to be that even if there weren’t “extras” you’d have a fairly decent therapeutic massage. Having tried almost all of the current roster, outside of maybe 1/2 providers, all have been lackluster and I would not repeat especially at their price point. The few decent masseurs that are there also seem a bit overworked/overbooked

Definitely some over promising and under delivering within the advertising hype regarding Kevin.
(He is a hottie, though.)

BJNYC got a reaction from BigDMike in Justin from Palm Springs
I had a pretty mediocre massage with him. I would skip.

I just had a 60 min massage with Mohammed tonight and have sort of mixed feelings on him. I think he's super talented with his hands but he's a bit lazy/repetitive with his movements. The strokes are long and sensual and feel amazing but I feel like he did the same move on each leg for waaaaaaayyyyyy too long. I suppose if I went again I could say something but i'm a very non-confrontational person. The massage was strictly therapeutic, fwiw.

BJNYC reacted to IlyaRozanov in 411 RestorativeBliss, Honolulu
I saw him a while back and I’m fairly certain nobody is booking him for these rates. I did not pay close to that. Massage is good but he’s honestly not that good looking to be charging insane rates like listed above.

BJNYC reacted to Horatio in *411 on spa 27
I had a session with Joy at 27 Men’s. He looks handsome, but the massage was perfunctory in every way. He started off saying, “we’re not allowed to ask about tips, but…” and asked about the tip about 3-4 times before and during the massage. At the start he asked about a specific dollar amount to get an idea of what he might be getting. And I guess I didn’t give the right answer because 1/2 the massage was one-handed and through a towel. It was a less than stellar experience that I wouldn’t repeat.

Would not recommend Mohammad. Saw him and he spent like 40 minutes doing the same thing on my leg. Terrible massage!! And not sensual at all.

BJNYC reacted to Nyc2 in Caleb in NYC
No, it wasn’t that I wanted to have a conversation with him - I prefer the quietness actually. I think there’s a difference between being quiet vs coming off as rude or uninterested.
