Everything Else

Great traditional Korean Spa. $40 gives 12hr access to the hot tubs, jet pools, and saunas. They have 6+ different saunas (pink salt, red clay, ice, etc.) The pools are divided by gender and private due to the traditional practice of bathing without clothing. Body scrubs and massages are available for extra. Keep an eye on Groupon as they often have great deals for both general admittance and massages.
