Re: Gym In Market Village

Gail, we've been members of the Hilton and now Market Village. For me Market Village wins because of standard and quantity of equipment and of course the classes they offer.

There are loads of salons but not many that do waxing, I've only found one. Heading north on Petchkasem take the next left after the turn into the old shopping mall, there is an optical shop on the corner. Go up a small lane and turn right, there's a fancy looking salon and next to it a traditional ...
