This bar/lounge is both sexy and intimate, bolstered by it's seedy past as a former "massage" parlor that offered happy endings to its clients. As a nod to its past and cheeky namesake, you can lounge in the former shower rooms in the basement which, while keeping all the original tile, have been converted into a seating and bar area.
