Spa Castle redefines "upscale"


Queens Crapper,

I know you normally don't like to reference World Star Hip Hop video on your site but I thought this was something quite extraordinary.

Spa Castle (formerly called InSpa IIRC) 131-10 11th Avenue, College Point, NY 11356 is the extra fancy Korean spa that arrived in Queens with much fanfare several years ago. There had been some neighborhood opposition to its opening that Tony Avella involved himself in but that seemed to subside after the business was up and running. My ex-wife is Korean and took me here about four years ago for my birthday. Place was very upscale and the crowd was predominately Asian and everybody was well behaved. I think it costs around $45 bucks for a day pass to use the facilities just for one visit.

From the video clip, it looks like ghetto hood rats have started patronizing the place. You would think it would be out of their price range but I guess not.Anyway, it's unbelievable what you see taking place in the video. Disgusting that these types seemed to have ruined this place. - anonymous

I wonder if they got there in one of the spa's vans. How do they get away with not having commercial plates on those things. Just sayin'...

Can you get a good "rusty trombone" performed on you there in addition to the usual "massagee, massagee"

That would be some "happy ending"
for sure!

Wow cat-fights-blood-perky breasts!

Are we viewing Rikers women lockup?

I do not see what the problem is here.

They vote Democratic. They make great backdrops for politicians showing their concern for the public. They enjoy tweeder programs.

They support 'Honest Joe' Crowley (who makes sure his family is far away)

... and they don't stand in the way of development or make their elected officials look like the moronic mindless jerks they are.

LOL! I guess when you on da welfare, get free rent, and get everything else you need paid for by the taxpayer, you can afford to splurge every once in a while!

She was obviously drunk. She's bleeding from the side of her face, she is not even effectively able to defend herself, her tit is hanging out (1:52) and it's funny to me that her boy friend/man friend doesn't just pick her up from the waste and drag her out.

No you can't do that there.

Hey! Hey! Watch that! I'm enjoying the "personal attention" to my transportation needs. Don't be a buzz kill and spoil my rides.

These disgusting types have ruined nice neighborhoods. They are mostly welfare recipients who don't work and have the cash (taxpayer dime) to go to a spa. They have no regard for anyone but themselves and are loud, rude and abrasive. Check out parts of Queens on a Saturday night when they have a party and their music can be heard two blocks away. Try calling 311 and the local precinct for an assist. Good luck with that. Vibrant and diverse. Ain't it Grand?

I always thought it was a big korean whore house. Thanks for clearing this all up.

Right at the tip of a formally quiet, predominately residential middle class neighborhood. The asians really don't care one bit where they build these monstrosities.

Nah. Just another Asian crap house.

You can thank Honest Joe, Slippery Mike and Whore Ad Ackerman for this.

To think that Queens - in living memory - used to be a viable alternative to Manhattan.

Now its the repository of every caccamamie idea that tweeding politicians have dreamed up.

Everything that is good and positive about the boro his being systematically starved, marginalized, or torn down.

Its leadership lives in an Alice in Wonderland world where the old bags from Astoria to Bayside get together over lunch and talk their empty talk, give each other meaningless awards, while every institution, be it cultural, intellectual, or political is infested with second stringer wannabes and hangers on who know how to follow, but have not had a new idea in their simple little noggins since the second grade.

This is a set-up. Who is the guy yelling "world-star"? the same guy who uploaded the video? Please. It would have been hilarious if some little Asian dude came out and started some chop-socky on those fat chicks. I feel sorry for the massage therapist who had to rub down those loud mouthed "beatches."

Your headline "Spa Castle redefines Upscale" is an unfair knock at this establishment.

If they only admitted Koreans people would be bashing them for being racist and exclusionary, besides being illegal. So to avoid appearing racist they have to admit anyone with the money to get in. It's not like they could deny entry to these lowlifes because they "thought" they would be a problem. The same incident could have happened in any store any of us shop in. If you really want to get a feel of what this place is like, read some of the yelp reviews. It amazes me that ignorant people still think of it as a "masagee" joint.

Yes, right next to the warehouses. What's the zoning there? Would another warehouse bringing in more trucks be any better? Funny how people live next to a light industrial zone and then complain about it. Oh and aren't those houses across the street built on toxic illegal dumps re-mediated by a plastic sheet? And they're worried about vans. Ha!

all thanks to Frank Padavan. You think the Spa "took care of him" the same way those Indian guys did at the Creedmore property.

Cant wait to see Padavan sentenced.

Not at all a bad place. I went there yesterday for the first time. I saw nothing like that. Instead, the place was filled with families with small children and grandpas as well.

Perhaps it depends on when you go.

Its only like this during the summer or during holidays. Best days to go are tuesday through thursday. It is completely empty on those days. Thhey have also beefed up security so an event like this rarely happens.
