Okay, so I completely understand how a bad facial can ruin the entire spa experience (read my review on Stillwater Spa for further details). Fortunately for me, I never had the facial (and never will here that's for sure...thanks fellow Yelpers!) but…More »

This is the much BETTER alternative to The Village Spa as they are only 10 minutes away apart by drive. I have had much better experiences here. This is a place I go to on my days off from work and if I don't feel like making the trek downtown. The…More »

This Spa reminds me of a place you would find in some tacky strip mall. But it's not. It actually is in the Bayview Village mall which has the appearance of being high-class. The spa is split into two levels. The main level is all about cosmetics and…More »

This is my chance to lose some weight and start yelping everything and anything un-food related! Happy Reading:)

Where to Stay (Hotel Picks and Miss) (7)

Serious reviews of hotels - some great and others not so. I plan on expanding my hotel reviews based on Chains and Loyalty program, but for now, come here for a hodgepodge of hotels within the downtown core. Be sure to check out the info and links included within each review on the hotels' rewards program.

30 Day Yelp Challenge - October 2011 (30)

What a wonderful idea! As the season changes and the weather gets colder, this challenge will ensure that I get out, try new places, meet old friends and really discover the city. A big NO to staying indoors and moping about! My aim for this list is to include a hodge-podge of reviews, from restaurants, to hotels, to knick-knack places! Let the challenge begin!
