Just curious, did you do a 1/2 hr? I assume so based on what you wrote but wasn't 100% clear. As far as stealth, I don't go here anymore, but when I did, I found the best place to park was on the right side of the building (if you are facing it from 252) in front of the "small field". If you park there, you can exit without a lot of eyeballs and walk along the backside hugging the building to the stairwell. Yea, people from the gas station might see you or someone else, but they (mostly) have no clue exactly where you are going because there are a lot of businesses in that building. Unless you are a customer there you likely don't know that the stairwell leads to Yao.

I think you are pretty safe from eyes if you do it that way (and wear a mask and sunglasses or a hat, always helps). Glad you had a decent time here for a change!

You all must live in that area being so worried about being seen. I actually live in that area and I've never seen it as a big thing. To each their own though. We have an excuse with masks now anyway. OP - nice review. Place was starting to be a no go so maybe they have upped the game a bit.

Well he does make a fairly good point. It is on a major rd (252) and right next to another one (3) so pretty high viz.

A couple times when I was worried about being spotted (depends what vehicle I drive, not all vehicles blend in as well) I parked down by the big lot past the beer place. It's fairly simple to park down there and walk up and enter the building. Sure you could be seen but with masks/hat/glasses the likelihood of being truly ID'ed is very, very low.

But paranoia can keep you safe. My advice always is if it's too close to your home base take extra precautions or go elsewhere. All depends on your individual risk tolerance....

Guys, put your risks into perspective. If anyone and everyone in the entire world saw you walk into or out of a massage, your response would be my X is killing me and I really needed a massage.

If anyone and everyone ever reads your reviews on this site, you are in deep.

One more thought to ponder, there is probably only a 1 minute window for someone to see you personally. Your reviews will live forever.

Amen CB - And it's so true that the possibility of being seen and to me worse is all the guys acting like they are sneaking around. Since we are on the YAO thread you car can be seen from anywhere if you park in that lot. Even worse for you guy that walk from the lot by the beer store 30 people will see you walking by the time you get there. That's risk way more. I don't live far from YAO and when I'm in Philly I run into people all the time that I know. So either get on with it or quite.
