Hello, Bago. Thank you for your report.
I've been curious about The prince spa. But haven't been there yet for some reasons. I believe what you heard.
Taking about tip, is it for the boys or the owner? If it's for the boys, it's for them. Or the owner can get extra tip from the boys? The prince spa's site doesn't say about minimum tip. Does anyone know? If they have a problem with the customers paying tip, they should advertise on their site like Areana does.
Areana says,
Minimum tip includes the following services.
1. Masseur wash your body for you in the shower
2. Massage services provided by the masseur
3. A hand job
From your report, they only will accept the customer who pay higher tip? Did they already have enough regular customers? And it means they will not accept new customers? I wonder how they choose the customers that pay higher tip. They ask you like ''how much will you pay tip'' or something before you get a massage? Or The prince spa asks you to pay first? (a massage fee and tip)
To me, even they have a good looking boys and facilities are great, 800 baht for a hour, 1,000 for 1.5 hour (Aroma oil) are pricy. Cream and Scrub salt+Aroma oil are more expensive that. And many boys used to be working at Albury, so I personally don't think The prince spa is that special.
If I go to Sathorn area, would choose Aqua or Adonis. There are many spas in Sathorn. If I were the same situation as you were, definitely would feel never wanna go there again. Someone said ''business'' (we all know that anyway), they should be more professional and carefully even if speaking in Thai around the customers. Also should know some tourists understand Thai language. The owner or the manager, they can not recognize that you understand Thai or not.
