Decent Evening at Mermaids

It was a Monday night and I was in the San Diego area for a convention so I had to go across the border and visit my favorite place, HK. Well, I got inside and it was pretty crowded and the two regulars I normally see were either not there or occupied with somebody upstairs so I went across the street to check out Mermaids Massage Parlor. I walked in (free cover) and ordered a beer and watched as they had some girls dancing but the real approach here is for them to come over to get you to get a massage in a private room. I had a girl come over who looked pretty decent, about 19 or so, name was Cassandra and had a Marijuana leaf tattoo on her belly. Not sure how that will be for the rest of her life that way, but she chose it for now. I bought her a ficha drink for $9 and she sat on my lap and was just talking and allowing me to grope here and there and although she was not too busty, there was something there to grab and she enjoyed pulling off her leather camisole to expose them. She asked to go to a private room for $100 which I talked down to $80 and asked what you get for the cost and she explained it was a massage room and that optional extras were available. I told her I wasn't born yesterday and for $80 I get the whole package at HK with a dancer (since I already had a room booked at Cascadas). She admitted that their place was dwarfed by the much more famous place but she would do her best to try harder and include full service for the $80. I told her that I am all about the experience and that if the service was good, I tip well and expect a great time. She agreed and we went to the private room. I stripped down and laid on a massage table and she also stripped and started to give me a massage with some kissing and lotioned me up a bit. I was facing down at first and then was told to flip over which I did as she stroked my legs, arms, chest and other main areas before she started to work on the "naughty bits". She whipped out a condom and put it on as she started to blow me while balancing on this narrow massage table and I worked over her body with the massage oil which was kind of fun. After a while, she mounted up and started to grind away and it was a pretty good experience. We changed positions and she got on the massage table and I stood up and entered her missionary and then doggy until I exploded into her. The lighting was a little dim and reddish tinged but not a bad experience. I do prefer a bed to a massage table, but it was a cool time. I liked Cassandra and we just sat on the massage table for a few minutes to recover and then she grabbed some towels and cleaned me up and we both went back to the bar for another round of drinks and she gave me her number and I told her to meet me at HK at 2 AM when she got off duty and we could go for another round on free time but alas, she did not show and I had to settle for a HK beauty later on but I will save that for another review. Overall, I liked Mermaids, I would prefer they just change the format to a regular brothel bar vs the weird massage table thing, but maybe they can claim they don't charge you extra for the room that way. I gave her $100 and spent about $30 on ficha and my own drinks before that night...decent time, just wish there was something closer to the Twin Cities like this where I live. Such a pain to have to go all the way across the country for it...
