He does look like his photos. He's short, I don't remember checking his height but I remember being surprised because his photos don't really give clues on this. I don't mind short guys though. I wasn't draped during the session and he used heat lamps and steam for part of the session which I kind of liked. He was fully clothed: tank and sweatpants but again, this was late and I wasn't expecting him to be naked or anything.

I booked him as a last minute massage one day, the setup is in a strip mall spa and when we met it was later than typical business hours so he had to open the front door when I arrived. He relocked it after I entered and I went to a standard treatment room that you would expect. It was equipped like an esthetician's studio, clinical, with several different pieces of equipment for facials and other treatments but still a decent massage table (although I remember feeling a bit cramped by it). The massage itself was ok, I started on my back which is always a bit "off" to me but I understand some masseurs have their own flow. I remember there being quite a bit of oil/lotion involved, so the technique was more lomi lomi/quick strokes and less deep tissue - English is not his first language but we didn't get into fully what I expected so mea culpa. I'm always tempted to write/speak Spanish to help the setup but the initial interactions were not in depth and close to one-word; the exchange during the visit/massage were almost non-existent which is fine with me because I don't like a lot of chatter mostly. So it was interesting because of the flipped body positions, there was some massage and HE at the start and then I flipped onto my stomach for additional massage time which again, felt odd/off to me. So in summary, I could try him again but not likely. The price was in-line with what you'd expect at retail strip mall spa so could be a situation of "get what you pay for".

My experience is probably about a year old but I liked Victor, didn't rave about it but was a solid "B" (probably C+ if I'm being tough) massage. The price was right for sure as you quoted but from what I recall he was breathing very heavy throughout which may mean there wasn't music (I don't recall) and he definitely wasn't trained when I saw him - more like someone who has learned from doing it over the years. The ending was happy and all but I remember questioning if that was going to happen or not because it felt somewhat unexpected.

what are the quoted rates? I saw on RM a 90 min was $250 but not sure what he quotes vs what people pay sometimes.

It's not the best area for parking but it's not the worst either so no, there was not a dedicated parking space. I had to drive around to find parking but having lived in NP I'm used to that. His setup was private, I didn't see any evidence of roommates. He had the massage table in the middle of the living area so I could guess it's a one-bedroom place but not sure.

Really happy I met up with him this past weekend. He is knowledgeable, warm, great looking in person and provided a solid experience. He has recently moved to North Park so more central than where he was before.
