It was $45 to get to me and presumably another $45 to get back, in addition to the $160 for the massage.
My gripe isn't so much paying for it, so much as it was never mentioned, and seemed to be based on how far he had to travel. I suppose in the reverse, if I'm not willing to travel to the other end of the city to a provider, I won't hire him. But in the case of a provider, if you do not even offer in calls, I kind of feel like it's on you to either absorb the time/cost of travel or factor that into your fee from the beginning.
As for reviews on the guy, they were so so, but he has a great body, so I was willing to take the plunge.
