I came across this ad today, and commented privately to some friends about the increased number of masseurs who are asking $200 for a one-hour massage.  I, for one, will not pay it.  I notice on some of the Rentmasseur reviews that clients pay even more than that.  I have to assume that those masseurs include services other than a massage, such as escort services.   Evidently, our national inflation has spread to masseurs, but $160 for an hour is my limit, and I consider that a bit much.

I agree.  He was very polite and affable, but definitely distant.  He avoids being touched.  He doesn't  care to show off his his trim, muscular body.  The room is dim, soft lighting, soft music, but no warmth in his personality.  "Formulaic" is a very good description.  I wasn't unhappy, nor did I feel that I was cheated, but I wouldn't repeat.

Utopia and Shangrila are owned by the same people, and Utopia also shows who's available at what times on what days.

I'm delighted to know that Alex has found a rewarding new career, and ALSO that he plans to return to massage.  I liked him a lot!   He had cancelled -- with advance notice, and politely -- twice, without explanation, and I thought that he had a personal or medical emergency.   I'm relieved to find that it was only because he's going to be a Wolf of Wall Street!   
 Seriously, I look forward to being under his skilled hands again in his nifty apartment high above the Hudson.

I haven't seen Alex listed as a masseur lately.   These guys seem to come and go. I thought Luca was just OK; I was there last week.  However, clients' opinions vary widely, as you know.  He shorted me 10 minutes, which never happened before at Utopia.  That's not the reason for "just OK." however.  He was just OK, imo.

First of all, if you were shortchanged as you say, you should not have paid the full fee. I have refused to pay the full fee after an experience such as yours, and you'd be surprised how fast these con artists back down.
 
Second, there seems to be a disconnect between the price his "clients" paid in the "reviews" on the site. One paid $200 for 60 minutes, and the other paid $200 for 90 minutes. I believe those reviews less than I believe in the Tooth Fairy (much less!), but you paid $250? Plus his Uber? Just what were you expecting?

I'm not sure who was sleeping in this video, but that's Calvin Banks, one of my favorites on Cocky  Boys videos.  Evidently, he's popular on other sites as well.

Timothy, you are OBLIGATED to report this to management  -- not legally, of course, but for the benefit of the management, and for all of us.   Whether you tipped David $6 or $60 or $600, his behavior was  TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!    And, yes, $60 is generous.

I was very surprised to read that a client had the experience described at Utopia.  I have been a client there since it opened, and I have known the owner Xiao, for longer than that.   What is described here is TOTALLY at variance from any experience I have had there, and I find it very hard to believe that "later attempts to reconcile with the owner failed."
Of course, I wasn't there, nor could I find the post to which Skurril refers to.  Nor do I know who this gentleman is.  But I think that something is fishy here.  It does not add up at all.

I used to see him a lot, but not lately.  I agree with Harryinny.  A very honest;, sincere guy, who gives a good massage and is generous with extras -- though he may charge more for more "advanced" things, but will be very up front if you ask.  

I'm SO impressed by his pointing out that clients can use his bathroom!
