underwhelming stay despite expectations

light massagestaff warmth
i was quite disappointed with my experience. the service at the spa was substandard. the therapists lacked empathy, and the massage was far too light to be therapeutic. i also noticed a general lack of warmth from the staff (they didn't even acknowledge i was a returning guest).
