funny title huh? mentioning the showers first....mostly because it was the highlight of the session, which says a lot. So to backtrack a little, when Brass opened i registered as a member and thought i'd try the place rather quickly but then i changed work location so it wasn't as convenient as i thought it might be at the time. Nevertheless yesterday i had some business to attend downtown along with a little friendly meeting and thought to myself afterwards, why not check it out for a simple visit.
Got up there, Jess is behind the counter. Very welcoming lady i must say, offered me a choice of drinks (coffee) , some chit chat and she directs the desk attendant to show me around...
So first impression, very good..i like the entrance hall, nice couches. Little bar and food behind the counter, nice touch. One big room that looks awesome with a large bed One room is quite small, too small in fact. Awesome shower heads
the bad: won't hold it against the girls on the couches who were having fun for one's birthday, after all most of them are very young and young people, well they want to have fun same i did when i was that age....but the boyfriend of one hanging around...hmmmm not so sure about that one, might make some clients uncomfortable. That was my first thought, didn't bother me personally but i can imagine some men coming in, seeing this and not feel at ease...something for Jessica to think about. Boyfriends hanging out hmmm no...i'd only go evening because parking downtown is an issue, if daytime, expect to pay extra for that unless you walk in.
So anyway i left with a mixed bag of impressions, thanked Jess for the unscheduled visit and got on my way. Later on when back home and was getting ready for the evening, i told myself why not go...had a stressful deadline week to deal with and i needed a change of scenery so i decided to book with Primrose.
Got there 15 min. prior to appointed time, thought i may sit at that little bar and have a drink but there was a couple signing up, no big deal, was offered a drink and i sat along with 2 other fellas, one came in unscheduled and the other had an appointment. 5 minutes in i am lead to the room. Guess my luck ran out right there, i got the smallest room. It's so small that the MA can't move around the table, she must stay on one side of the table which kind of limits her range of action, at one point i offered to rub her back which she gladly accepted. I stayed standing but at one point i got on the table, it cracked some and i thought 'my god we'll come crashing down' in a heap of oil....but the poor table withstood the barrage of pain, good thing i'm not overweight though because i'm not sure it would have taken the beating. So the room, nahhhh...way to small.
Now to the main event...the damn showers...now i am no licensed plumber but i did a lot of renovation work in my lifetime. Whoever planned water tank usage versus # rooms clearly didn't consider that with these elaborate multiple outlets shower heads, you burn water like fuel evaporates in a joy fire. He failed this big time and i would have sued him for poor planning alone. There was NO HOT WATER, not even ONE DROP when we got to the first shower, tepid at best and that only lasted like 30 seconds, the room had no heater and it was chilly. I got out cold, I thought well maybe after the hour the tanks will have replenished some, but it was even worse...not ONE DROP either on the 2nd shower, it was even colder. So we just had to towel off with the damp towels. Speaking of towels, they had clearly seen a lot of usage and given the hot water problem, i suspect they don't come out of the washer drier very...hmmm white. Ho, forgot to mention that whoever prepped the room, forgot the shower soap. We got naked and ready for what proved to be a cold shower only to see there was no soap. So i was left standing naked while my attendant rushed out to get some soap.
I understand i may not have been the best of clients as far as frequency is concerned but i am disappointed in the room i got, the complete lack of hot water, soap missing and towels that didn't appear fresh to me. I thought this water issue would have been resolved by now but it's not. I got out thinking what was this? Didn't feel refreshed or relaxed and finished the night with the sticky feeling under my clothes until i got home to a HOT cleansing shower. I know Jessica is trying hard to resolve this issue but maybe they should just close one room (the one i got should just be used as storage) to save some water as i'm sure i wasn't the only one who got a cold shower.
And out of all this rather strange and unpleasant hour...well that may be a little strong, i'll say moment i will not care to remember, i forget to mention my attendant Primrose. Super sweet girl, talkative. Gives a relaxing massage, liked the body slides and the interaction got better as we moved along (always that first meet, break the ice moment). She is rather new at this but did her best, she tried hard in spite of the circumstances, i suspect the shower would have been a lot more pleasant if there had been hot water but as things were, we just stood in there wanting to get out as soon as we could. I am not sure if i would go back, if i did i would want some form of guarantee that i get a better room, a HOT shower and fresh towels. I have visited CMJ a couple of times and the rooms there are larger, even out east where they are generally smaller than out west, there is still ample space to move around and enjoy some slippery fun, not so much in the room i got.
All in all, a rather disappointing first visit (except for Primrose which i can't for the life of me blame for anything)
edit: Last night i logged on my Brass account no problem. Now am locked out, say wrong password...even stranger
