What guests say.

We keep a lounge book by the tea. People write in it on the way out. Here are nine of our favourite entries, as written, minus the coffee rings.

    I came in wound up from work and left unable to remember what I was annoyed about. The 50 degree pool is the friendly one.

    Quiet sauna rule is the best thing here. Nobody narrating their workout. Just heat and the hiss of the stones on the hour.

    Took my dad for his 60th. The front desk talked him through the cold like it was nothing. He has a membership now.

    Saturday guided session with Ines. I have never been calm in cold water before. The breathing actually works.

    Our run club books the whole house the first Saturday of the month. Sore legs, 50 F pool, tea. Perfect morning.

    The steam room at half past is my secret. No eucalyptus blast, nobody in there, ten quiet minutes.

    Clean, calm, not fussy. Lockers with chargers is such a small thing and I love it.

    Bought my partner a gift card for her birthday and we now go every Tuesday night. Best $58 I ever spent.

    Saturday at 11 was busier than I expected, the sauna was full for a round. Weekday mornings are the move.

Tell us what we could do better.

Good notes go in the book. Useful notes go to Marisol, who reads every one and has changed the tea recipe twice because of them.

The busy hours, honestly

Saturdays 10am to 2pm and weekday evenings after 6pm are the fullest. Weekday mornings and the last hour before close are the calmest. Plan around that and you will get the experience in these reviews.
