Jahayra_NYC: Had the best 60 min message and 20 min foot massage w Nick. His hands are A M A Z I N G!! The place is very welcoming and everyone is super nice. I'm coming back in 2 wks that's how good it was.
The Wall Street Journal: If all you want to do is sleep, this isn't the place. But if background music, mood lighting and a foot massage sound like helpful additions to your nap, then you'll be nodding off in no time. Read more.
The New York Times: Powernap, anyone? Spend 15 minutes in a pod or give your heels a break and enjoy a foot massage.

chi shi: Great place to get a quick ( or long ) chair massage :) nice, open and clean place!
Eryn Braue: Bliss is right around the corner AND they accept tips on your credit card. The cash tip only thing is ridiculous especially when you're paying with your expense account or just don't carry cash.
Valerie Dee: They got me in at the last minute for a much needed pedicure. I loved the crystal gels they use in the water!!! Massage was nice too, but overall a little quick. Price was good and spa was clean!
