What are the factors important to you in a massage shop?

[maguro]

1. Walkable distance from a train station.
For example taking the long walk from Burwood station to 14 Burwood is a drain of energy. After you arrive the girl drains you further.
I really don't know how to get to 192 Paradise Ryde Massage by a bus. Sorry Ada no matter how wonderful are your girls.

2. $150 FS.
I enjoy that in Burwood with the ladies in their early thirties/late twenties beauty.
I believe pleasure of the flesh doesn't have to be expensive.

2 hole. Younger more attractive ML.

I usually end up paying for FS at MPs ($130 + $120/$150 at the NHJ included shops), even though I know I can get better value at Ginza. I think the fact that the girls aren’t doing FS 10 hours back to back makes the service better, and honestly 2 hole TT does more for me than a shower BBBJ and catbath.

Seems a few punters cannot/do not like driving to punts. Can I ask why?

1. Clean but not overly adorned with gold and other signifiers of money-laundering.
2. Nice smells - incense, coconut...
3. Feminine, gentle music, preferably instrumental.
4. Personable, clear communication from senior staff/mamasan who evidently value your custom without crawling into your wallet.
5. Pretty girls with nice bodies, wearing clothes that are appropriate for quick removal when required.
6. Car parking within 250m, preferably in a quiet street with no traffic lights in between.
7. Discreet entryway, opaque front windows if not a staircase.
8. Reasonable prices, with a sense of customer loyalty i.e. each time you return you get extra time, service and other forms of polite recognition.

I never had this problem with 14 Burwood. Just take the bus from the station instead of walking. So many buses to get there and I never had to wait for more than 5 minutes.

Thanks. I never need to walk that far down for a punt anymore.

The young girls work in the establisments around the station.

The further you walk down the older they get.

THAT's a LONG walk for you? FMTT. It's a klick, level. What are you, the Maynard G Krebs of "walking"?

Don't go to "Swampy" - that's just about the distance from the lounge to G gates.

[PJD]

Easy parking, clean, relaxing music, decent soundproofing, easy reliable booking.

Add nice girls to that and it's a winner.

Private back door discreet entrance

[Cm888]

Discrete entrance. Not something out front of a busy intersection lol

[phamily]

having in-room showers is a pretty big deal for me, esp during the hot summer months for both pre and post punt wash ups

[bobtheslob]

+1 the discrete entrance. Out back and not onto another busy street (I'm looking at you New3).

Great looking staff, nice atmosphere, no hard (haha) sell

Just checked it on Google maps. It's only 1 km on flat ground. Plus all the Asian eye candy along the way cos it's Burwood. Doesn't sound so bad at all.
But then again, you never know people's physical conditions.

Yeah exactly this as well. If there's a shower outside the room and it's clean then it's doable but not ideal

[stallionmachine123]

A reputable mamasan who can run day to day operations of a shop and you know the girls show up most of the time.

Also pretty young ML and having a few good ones who can provide a good hard massage

[CFH]

clean rooms and interior of the place
no stale smells or anything
good service/ value for money
girls or women that are fun, not ones with an attitude
reasonably discreet location

occupational hazard - post punt parking fines

Just paid 3

What good feelings or fitout i require in a shop?

-Shower large enough for 2 ideally .
-Quality body wash - nothing that smells of coconut ice or palmolive
-Clean fluffy not threadbare towels
- solid large table with a solid wooden chair
- well anchored coat hooks
-reverse cycle that works
-good bluetooth speaker
-mamasan with attitude - still have fond thoughts about cathy and our chats

[neveragain]

I can't speak for massage shops but for a full service shop my criteria are that the name begins with "Ginza" and ends with either "Empire" or "Club".

[11Bravo]

No bedbugs.........

[Bomber13]

Car park with plenty of spots. I do not want to be driving around looking for parking
