Wife & I ( in late 60's) made an appointment for the first time here. Normal apprehensions for 1st. timers. Started off to be a nasty day. Wet, drizzly, cool. The kind we haven't had much of lately ( sarcastic). Lauren came out & introduced herself. Immediately the apprehensions started to fade. Very polite & friendly. I went first and when she advised me that the mattress pad was heated no more apprehensions at all with the exception of me wondering if I would be able to stay awake to enjoy. At this stage in life time passes pretty fast but my hour seemed to pass quicker than most and NO! I didn't fall asleep. Just extremely enjoyable & relaxing. Overall a 10 & looking forward to next visit.
Wife & I both thoroughly enjoyed.
