I've posted about this place a few times already and I've had quite a few PMs asking me about the location as it's in the same building as another massage shop. Also, there was a post from another Punter who accidentally went to the wrong shop so I thought I'd clarify here to save myself some time.

Star is the upstairs shop at 4/860 Old Cleveland Rd. If you use the back entrance you'll have to walk past the other shop up to Star.

As you can probably tell from the reviews this shop is getting pretty busy and my new favourite 😉

I note that the 5Star chain is now putting some of their best at TT Carina. I like how competition seems to be sharpening their game.

Yes- Carina is becoming a hub for punters!

Just avoid the other shop up the road and the other shop across the road. Based on visits a year or so ago. Maybe they've upped their game? But I'm not going to try again.

I'm mid 30s, would she be slightly too old, I heard?

Nearly choked on my Bahn Mi. Not sure age can be a sole determining factor of attraction?

Are there many long time punters who used to visit this shop when it was called Shanghai Massage and it was owned by Mei?

Not sure if I’m imagining it, but Poppy reminds me a lot of someone named Ali from SSDS years ago. Could it be the same person? I think it’s been nearly 7-8 years

Same person. She worked at SSDS/Luna at least until late 2023.

Then I must've remembered it wrong — it hasn’t been 7 or 8 years, 5 at most

Must’ve been a hell of a session if he’s still talking about her five years later

How was the experience?

I can't speak for Hermes but honestly I found her service now disappointing. When she was at SSDS/Luna and even more recently at 5star her service was on point- warm, attentive and professional.
But now? Just not the same spark.

Just goes through the motions to get the job done.

Maybe the pressure of running her own shop has left her jaded?

I can't say that has been my experience. I've visited Poppy several times at her new shop and have received the same great service that I always had at all the shops.
