I tried All Seasons on 9th and 42nd/43rd (mixed staff, and they had at least 3 male masseurs). I previously had been to Four Seasons on 9th and 47th/48th a couple of times (they have at least 2 male masseurs). Four Seasons has consistently given purely therapeutic treatment with not much sensual touch and about as much pressure as you want. All Seasons was the opposite. If you want a more soothing, light touch and to leave happy, they may be a better option (obviously YMMV).

it was not in a basement space

Did Nickel Spa masseurs on 8th and 14th ever go beyond therapeutic only?

There was a gym 2 or 3 floors below The East Side Club with a massage room and hot masseurs.

Everyone who is able should consider adding $10-$20 to your tip next visit to help these guys recoup some of their losses today.

I'm not in LA right now, but yes, everyone is tired of the incessant "bumps" and "what do you think of 'X'?" I've always appreciated how this site was set up to review people, but some sideliners just ask, ask, ask, and never tell anything.

This is great. So glad you are making it easier for everyone. And very clean, sharp look!

6'2", 200 is not a twunk.

I wanted to see Brian, but he was off on Tuesday, so I saw Jason for a 30-minute scrub and 60-minute massage. Scrub was OK, though the set-up of their table does not allow the masseur to move around, and it has a water drainage system rather than water running off the table like I'm used to. Of course, the tight quarters leads to a more sensual touch. Massage was also OK, but I could not allow a deep-tissue massage, so I don't know if his skills are good if you want full pressure. The facility is barebones like every Asian spa I've visited. I left happier than I expected for a first-time visit, but always YMMV. No upselling whatsoever during the scrub/massage. Would I return? Perhaps, especially to see Brian who seems a little more built. But no complaints here.

No, I visited and they aren't fake.

What do you mean by that?

Why not just come out and say you are the nee owner/manager, Shane?

I agree with doing the research available on this site, which I was not aware of the first time I visited someone. That being said, I would encourage you not to place perfect-10 expectations on your experience. Choose someone that seems like your type/preference, and just go enjoy whatever happens. Unless you think this is going to be the one and only time you ever see someone, you might be putting too much pressure on having that once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Is Andres at Hush the same masseur who used to work at HK 52?

In the pics/videos, he doesn't look even close to 9 inches, if that's what you are looking for.
