WATCH OUT - Dufferin & Finch - European Touch

[Fayde]

THIS PLACE IS A SCAMMMM.... Stopped by a couple of days ago looking for a good rub. $60 door fee - no problem. I look at the line-up which got an overall 5/10 and pick Tierra.

I take my shower wait a few minutes and in she comes.
She asks me if i want oil or lotion - i say oil. She tells me she only uses lotion (WTF was she asking me for???)

Rubs my back for 10 seconds and asks what "package" i would like. I replied "package????" - what are you offering? NOW LISTEN TO THIS -
$140 - lowest package - body slide
$180 - body slide with reverse
$260 - body slide and NR

AND SHE WANTS THE MONEY UP FRONT!!!! I Knew at that moment i should have gotten up and left and tried to get my door fee back - but i remembered the sign saying no refunds (ANOTHER MISTAKE - I SHOULD HAVE LEFT AFTER I READ THAT - OBVIOUSLY THEY'VE HAD MANY PROBLEMS IN THE PAST).....

Intsead - i decide to pay her $200 and see what happens...
What happens - i throw $260 into the toilet - i could have had FS with SP at that price - or 2 great messages at allure or SRM - what a fricken waste of coin..

FRIENDS SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Live and learn. Sorry to hear of your bad experience. Better luck next time buddy...

 

[Lemony]

Makes me enjoy the $150 I just spent that much more.

Sorry...

Hey - dont be sorry for me - i can afford it 10 times over.... i'm just warning my fellow hobbiests not to fall into the same trap...

places like that should be out of business and replaced with more places like allure, srm, and hfh...

If this is the dump behind the gas station, then it's unfortunate because i had a very similar experience there 2 years ago. There seems to an ample supply of unsuspecting horny joes that keeps this place alive for what ever reason - maybe it's the location. But yeah, I haven't been back since and don't plan on doing that either.

If it's the place between the gas station there I went a year or two ago at around 2 or 3 am and saw a MPA there. The session was so so nothing special just your average slide. The cost was the usual 30 min door fee + 80 to 100 for tip (it was long ago so I can't remember for sure most likely 100).

But yes I agree that price is crazy.

Start completely freaking, tell them you thought this was a legit therapeutic massage parlour and threaten to call the police.
The last thing they want is the cops showing up, and even if the cops do show up start rasing a ruckus and tell them you have back problems and need a massage by a registered masseuse.

You wanna see how fast you get your money back

You played it all wrong. All wrong.

That's a tough situation but I think I would have said that those prices were a lot more than other places such as allure, SRM, HFH etc. If she doesn't budge than offer a low tip and cut your losses. This is of course assuming that you don't just walk out...... which is tough when you are obviously in the mood for a massage.

The only place there I can think of is Bodybliss which before
management change used to be called European Touch if memory
serves. There is one or two other spas on Finch between Dufferin
and Keele but I don't think any goes by the same name.

I was there only once and that was more than 6 monthes ago.
The facilities were decent. The room had both a shower
and a sink and the place was well kept overall. I could tell
the place was extensively renovated after the takeover of
Euro touch (which I visited only twice several years ago).
I also found the entrance to the spa discreet. I paid
$60 for 45 minutes. I can't tell if they have a standard menu for
the MPAs to stick with. My impression is that pricing is more
or less in line with other spas: tipping of $20...$80 on top of
door fee. I ended up paying $80 for a BS. The experience
is not something to rave about but not bad either. At least I got my
full 45 minutes and the girl (no longer there) did not show
any bad attitude. I didn't revisit the place mainly beacuse
there are other areas of location I prefer.

You rich? Loan me money. I would have said topless and flipped her 20 and let her beat my meat.

 

[Sam N]

its no longer called European Touch - its called Bodybliss

you would have had a better time at AC which is across the street and for less.

 

[swimmer611]

Okay. You have convinced me. I will not ever go there
unless it begins to consistently receive favourable reviews
here.

 

[jaycenDELO]

Wow, I feel sorry for you, ...but thanx for the posting 1000% sure I will never go there...

 

[Francis B]

this place is a huge rip off ...i think you can get a 30 min session only IF YOU COME BEFORE 5PM. Most of the girls over charge in my opinion. ACs just across the street but i'd rather stay away from that entire intersection.

 

[ELIZABETH C]

I went there when it was EE. 4 girls were there but something told me not to stay so I said I was looking for something different and walked out. Glad I left. Thanks for the warning. Someone should print these notes and send them to the spa's owner.

$260.00!!! That is crazy... was the girl a perfect 10 (body and face) at these rates?

 

[Megan!91]

U can afford that TEN times over!!! I envy you, Gogogold.

 

[annmic]

For that price you could have had 2 FS's plus a basic at Sunshine @ Keele & Finch, with money leftover to head on over to Mickey D's drive thru....

 

[unagii]

and thats being generous....

 

[Harry O]

I have not heard of price like that except a MP called TLM (I believe this is what it called, a MP located on HWY 7). If this is the actual rate that BodyBliss charges, I will stay away even the MPA provide good services. Thank you for warning.
