Had Yai Part 3- Pain & Pleasure

In this trip, we stay in a new hotel- Mayflower Grande Hotel. This hotel is only 4 months old. It is oso a 3 C's hotel. What is 3 C's? 1. Clean 2. Cheap 3. Convenient...It is located in the city. Famous shopping malls like Lee's Garden and Central are within walking distance. So anytime, shopping till tired can go walk hotel rest and it is convenient for me to go back for my dialysis every 5 hour. Tut-tut services and 7-Eleven are jus in-front of the hotel. it is only 900 baht +++ per night.Lai, lai , lai buy 4d...Lucky Number 1402..... Our room number....
This is our room...Looks very clean and tidy ya? Morning scene from our room...not very nice view though...

Those who are going to visit Had Yai and looking for accomodation, may try this hotel. Located in 150, Sangchan Road. Contact No: 074-234-888, 074-230-120 or email- mayflowergrande@hotmail.com.

Other than shopping, eating we oso go massaging. The first day, before our Japanese buffet dinner we went for foot massage. The foot massage was in a hair saloon. This hair saloon provide multiple services. Other than hair services and massaging. They oso provide facial, manicure& pedicure and oso ear digging.

The foot massage was not a pleasure but pain. And i don't think the masseur are all professionals. I don't really enjoy the massage i prefer the one i did in Penang...that one at least more pro. Other than foot massage. We went to spa the next day. The spa we went Cenvaree Spa was located inside Novotel Hotel.My aunt and Kenny Kor tried the services here on their last trip and they are very satisfied with their services. So this time they took us to try out. We decide on a package that provides scrubs, massage and wraps. But substitute the wraps with longer duration of massage. The spa duration was 2 1/2 hours.
So far in Pg..i went to spa twice. The first time was Danai Spa when they first open and they had a promotional rates. The 2nd time was after i get my bonus from MBF..I went to Santuary Spa in Gurney Hotel. The best sure is Danai Spa, then Santuary Spa. To me this Cenvaree Spa was ok nia but better than none lo. Cos the masseur don't realy know how to control their strenght. When they massage...soft is too soft and hard is too hard. In Pg, usually after massage and scrubs they provide bath services in a jacuzzi. But in Had Yai...they don't recommend bath after massage. Cos they believe when we massage our pores are widened and if we bath the water might ran thru the pores and it will cause arthritis in future. But that what my grandma believe too..whenever we massage ointment to the affected of our body, my grandma asked us not to wash our hands and the that area immediately.

After spa they served us Ginger tea and a towel to wipe our hands or face.The ginger tea served in an elephant glass...Cute, right?
