We
came
in
late
on
the
day
we
flew
into
Waikiki
to
inquire
about
massage
appointments
for
our
party
of
4.
I
understand
it
can
be
hard
to
fit
in
4
people
for
same
day
appointments,
and
even
next
day
appointments.
So
we
agreed
to
11:30
am
slots
2
days
from
then.
The
guy
at
the
reception
had
us
fill
out
paper
slips
with
our
names
and
everything…
but
then
something
odd
happened.
Where
he
had
originally
told
us
a
50%
deposit
would
be
required,
and
we’re
pulling
out
our
cards
to
pay,
he
then
tells
us
‘oh
you’re
all
set,
you
don’t
need
to
pay
a
deposit’.
So
we
retire
back
to
our
hotel…cause
you
know,
we’re
bone
tired
from
a
dozen
hours
of
flight
travel.
True
to
OUR
word,
we
show
up
for
our
11:30
am
appointment.
That’s
when
the
receptionist
tells
us
there’s
no
appointment
booked
in
the
system.
We’re
like
yes
we
did
book
appointments,
filled
out
little
paper
slips
and
everything.
She
then
rifles
through
a
pile
of
these
paper
slips
that
are
off
to
the
side
and
true
enough,
she
finds
the
4
slips
that
we
had
filled
out.
When
we
describe
the
man
who
had
taken
our
reservation
2
days
prior,
we
find
out
that
he’s
the
owner.
So
this
behavior
is
coming
from
the
top
folks.
The
irony
is
that
as
we
walked
out
of
his
shop
that
night,
we
suspected
he
might
do
something
like
this!
And
it’s
exactly
what
he
did
lol.
When
you’re
a
POC,
you
become
attuned
to
these
things.
He
should
have
gotten
rid
of
our
appointment
slips
though,
so
there
would
be
less
evidence
of
his
bigotry
🙄.
Like,
why
the
duplicity?
Why
waste
our
time?
Reading
some
of
these
other
reviews
after
the
fact,
this
man
claims
to
be
going
for
this
‘soothing
vibe’.
Well,
this
ain’t
it.
The
vibe
was
off
from
the
get
go.
It
was
this
weird,
manufactured,
fake
Zen
vibe.
That’s
some
fake
Aloha
when
you’re
treating
patrons
like
this.
Partition
your
space
better
with
enclosed
spaces
if
you’re
worried
about
protecting
the
people
getting
massages
from
excess
noise.
POC,
please
patron
elsewhere.
There
are
plenty
of
wonderful
massage
shops
in
Waikiki.
We
ended
up
being
accommodated
with
wonderful
massages
by
Lana
Kohola
Massage
on
Royal
Hawaiian
Ave
after
this
man
wasted
our
time.
