Reply to Terrible GPS accuracy on iOS? by moka_soldier

I heard a rumor that GPS services are bad in DC on purpose so that weapons with a GPS tracker can't target effectively

Not really. I went to Ozuki in the summer when I was looking for the same thing OP was looking for. Those services are basically just hair masks. They wash your hair, put a hair mask on, and have you sit with the hair mask (I think under a dryer?) just like any other salon would do.

Yeah that sounds terrible. I went to the one in Arlington, ordered my food during the previews and all of us got all of our food before the movie started.

Then we enjoyed the movie with our food and drinks. I had a great time. Nothing like what you've described here.

They definitely checked our tickets in Arlington.

At Spa World, the big soaking pools are separated by gender and you're naked

At King's Spa, you wear a bathing suit and their soaking pool is outside. King's Spa has more sauna rooms or salt sauna rooms.

I'd say that's the main difference.

Both offer delicious food, both have ice rooms, both offer the full body scrub service.

You're making it sound even less worth the trouble

Travel to the airport
Go through ticketing, airport security, wait at the gate for a...
8-9 hour International flight
Go through customs or passport checkpoint
Take a 90 minute train
Travel to hotel/spa

All for a spa that has about the same amenities as King Spa in Chantilly, VA or Spa World in Centreville, VA

Does this sound worth it to anyone else?
