Baan Relax

Great foot massage, this is the second one we had in Thailand and near our hotel but probably the 7th we had during this vacation, most were in Taiwan, and I think this was the best of them all. Just the right pressure, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The lights dimmed with soothing music. The one we had prior to this place the night before just wiped our feet with cold rag and didn't even switched out the towels on the chair, ugh. This place washed our feet with warm water and soap and went (I think to wash their hands) between massaging our feet and our head/shoulder/back. We booked another one for the next day while we were there, that is how much we liked it.

I’m in Thailand, so of course I had to get a traditional Thai massage! I’d say this one’s been the best so far. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and my masseuse made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I was also pleasantly surprised by the price: just THB 330 for an hour, including balm.

Of the many massages I’ve had this trip to Thailand, this would have to be the worst, and let me elaborate. To say it succinctly - I have never had a massage that I wanted to end, until I had this one. Prior to our massage, we called ahead to set an appointment and to confirm availability. All good to go there. Upon arrival, my massage started 25 mins late. Then came several other problems: 1 - The masseuse that I had was very clearly sick. She was hacking, coughing, burping, and the experience itself was disgusting. It was very clear she was just half assing it to get the job done. 2 - We got an hour long foot massage, and an hour long “neck, back, and shoulder” massage. The foot massage was “ok” at best, very low effort on their end. The second part of our massage - they didn’t even address the areas advertised in the massage. Maybe chalk this one up to language barriers or something, but this was pretty disappointing. 3 - After the massage was complete, they stood around basically waiting for tip. So much for quiet enjoyment time post massage. All in all, I couldn’t wait for this massage to be over. Of all the places you could go get a massage in Bangkok - definitely don’t choose this one.

Worst massage ever I got. A lady absolutely had no idea what she is doing. After I pointed it for cashier she said oh sorry she is new. And I must pay for this ridiculous “service”! Be aware, scam
