Yu Spa

After reading multiple reviews, I was nervous for my appointment today but once arriving, I paid and was shown around the facilities. The areas are very clean, and inviting. The facility is nude in the hot tub/cold tub, steam & dry sauna as they state on their website. While, yes women of all different shapes and sizes were present (this angered me from the previous review) I never once felt uncomfortable or as if I needed to cover. I minded my business, just like everyone else. Having nude communal area for a spa experience is very common in the Asian culture. I did carry around my small towel to the sauna & steam room to sit on. There are small curtains in between the wet service area beds, but they weren't pulled. However, most of the time my eyes were closed or covered so I wasn't paying attention to anyone around me during my scrub and massage. The beds are slippery, so beware, but they do help you from falling off. Overall my experience was really calming and relaxing. My skin is so soft and my body feels renewed. Would recommend to anyone wanting a full spa experience, as long as you are comfortable in your own skin!

I've been to many other Korean spas, and I think the quality of this place was nowhere near its price. It's definitely not the traditional Korean spa most people know of. Sauna is really small, and both the tub and sauna temperature need to be higher. I would highly recommend going to the aqua daily spa, which is located very close to here. Lower price with better quality sauna and tub. If you are Korean and thinking about visiting this place, I recommend saving money for other goods.

PLEASE PEOPLE RINSE BEFORE YOU HOP IN THE TUBS!!!!!!! They did good job on the interior because it looked just like korea. I loved it. BUT the cold/hot tubs were not clean. The cold tub had hairs and deadskin floating and it looked so gross. Hot tub wasn’t sure because there was a jer bubble in the tub. I literally saw 2 white ladies not rinsing and hop in to the hot tub? That was so gross. You are not clean!!! Have some manner lol They said rinse before the hot tub and you were literally talking about it with your friend??? I don’t know how often they change the water but if that’s what I need to deal with I won’t go again.

This spot was incredible! I’ve been to K spas in Virginia, Georgia, and Washington state and this one was top notch. I’m not sure why this place has any bad reviews because I found it to be incredibly clean, all amenities listed were exceptional including my scrub/massage combo, the temperatures of the hot and cold tubs, corn tea and fruit water always available, the softness off the uniforms (not just some khaki poly blend), the price, the saunas, and how the reservations were spaced out. I never felt like there were too many people in any of the spaces. If you have never been to a Korean spa I suggest reading about etiquette at what expect first and do not expect this to be the same as a western spa experience. It is common to be in a group area for the wet body work and leave your swim suit at home. Be comfortable being nude and tip the women performing body work on you a minimum of 20%.

First time in a spa, and to be honest I was quite nervous. But, I do have to admit that I had a great time and never have I ever felt so relaxed. Once you arrive, you are treated by very nice staff (Note: this is your time to ask questions, once you go into the lockers no one will speak English). Sure, it’s a bit nerve racking getting in the buff with other people around. Once you clear your mind and get over it, it’s actually not bad. I didn’t feel like anyone was judgmental at all. 100% recommend the body scrub. I showered before coming, I mean… like I was clean. And the amount of dead skin that came off me was surprising! At the end I went into the ice room. Which felt like a fridge and not a freezer. Closes all your pores and tightens the skin. And feels quite refreshing. The entire spa is very well organized and clean. Amazing time spent there.

I have been coming here for years, this is a great place. It has gotten more popular and more expensive, which is fine and good for them, they need to be able to run their business. What is unfortunate about the place getting more popular is the influx of patrons who don’t respect the rules in order to maintain a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. For example today I experienced a woman talking loudly on her phone in the change room, and loud conversations in almost every area. I honestly don’t mind paying more for yu spa, but I feel disappointed to not feel fully relaxed at this price point. It’s not their fault since it is the patrons who are doing it, but maybe more signs or more enforcing of the rules would be nice. People come in groups to socialize, it’s not a bar….
