FuelMix Writes Off Arena. Will Not Show Up. Will Not Upload His Reviews.
Yeah...we know...it's been open about 4 months.
FuelMix showed up at Arena in the middle of a 3 day public holiday in what would have been Prime Time, namely 9pm. Not having been for several weeks and only hearing negative reviews about Arena, he figured that a holiday weekend would be the best time to see if anything had improved.
It hadn't.
1. Entry Fee And Sticker Shock
1. In Arena Sauna 8, we said this:
We know at the moment, Arena is not getting a lot of people and initial reports about it were disappointing.
We know Alexander is closing down on 30 November 2016 and their staff are actively directing people to Arena.
So...why in fuck's name are Arena charging HK$130.00 entry on weekdays and HK$150.00 on weekends and public holidays..?? Is that how they expect people to show up..??
2. Sure enough, FuelMix got charged HK$150.00. When he got to his locker, he discovered that his shopping bag wouldn't fit with his backpack and his clothes. The staff on duty offered to store it behind the Reception and charged FuelMix an extra HK$30.00 making his entry fee HK$180.00.
3. FuelMix got pissed off and asked why. Staff pointed to a metallic sign above the payment grille which stated that an additional charge of HK$30.00 would be levied on large items.
4. FuelMix said that he had never been charged anything by Alexander (who once stored a brand new 19-inch flat computer screen behind the counter), ABC (who several times stored cabin baggage that FuelMix used for shopping downtown) and Action (who stored his shopping bags from Sogo). All were part of the same ownership. In fact, no sauna in town had charged FuelMix anything extra for behind-the-counter storage.
5. Staff shrugged and said, "new policy". FuelMix seethed with anger but had no choice but to accept it.
2. The Clientele
1. 5 GAMs of differing ages and below average bodies. Absolutely zero to look at. 4 of them with sky-high attitude.
3. The State Of The Premises
1. Ohhh yeahhh.....Remember what Alexander and Club Houzz looked like in the months leading to their closure..? Here's what FuelMix saw in Arena that evening:
- Filthy toilets;
- 25 uncollected used towels on the floor and the towel rack;
- The Steam Room looked like a nigga ghetto with open condom packets, used condoms, empty lube packets and used towels strewn all over the floor;
- Each of the only 4 private cabins littered with open condom wrappers, used condoms, empty lube packets and toilet paper;
4. What One GAM Customer Told FuelMix
FuelMix: What went on here..? Why is this place such a mess..?
GAMCustomer: Oh...there were about 12 to 15 people here. They left nearly 2 hours ago.
FM: What did they look like..? Gym guys..?
GAMC: No, no...average guys like me...not muscle guys, some skinny young guys, fat guys, old guys
FM: They left nearly 2 hours ago..?? Did another group of guys come in since then..?
GAMC: No...only you
FM: How long have you been here..?
GAMC: About 7 hours
FM: How many people came in over the last 7 hours?
GAMC: About 12 to 15...
FM: The same people who made this mess?
GAMC: Yes...[giggles]
FM: What's so funny?
GAMC: The Staff have not cleaned anything up.....just talking
FM: Those 3 guys behind the counter?
GAMC: Only one of them is Staff. The other two are his friends...talking for nearly 2 hours. Because not many people come here, they leave everything to make it look busy...but actually only 12 to 15 people for about 7 hours. Not very good hah..?
FM: Why do you come here then..?
GAMC: For me it is so-so.....I can get some action.....you know, average guy with average guy. But I don't like this place...to small, too cramped...only 4 private rooms. Not as big as ABC or Alexander.....they are so stupid to design it like this.....cannot relax here.....not comfortable
FM: But you stayed for 7 hours...
GAMC: Yes...I am horny and it is public holiday, so nothing to do just now
FM: Do you like this place..?
GAMC: No.....not really.....for Tsim Sha Tsui this is very sad. Galaxy gets more people and more action than this place. And they are much older and more dirty...
FuelMix had heard enough and had enough. He got dressed. As he was leaving, a chubby customer arrived and the Staff started to clean up the place. FuelMix left after 50 minutes.
