Here is my review of Havana Sauna in Aurora, about 20 minutes outside downtown Denver. It is located in a strip mall with an H Mart and Vietnamese/Korean restaurants. The spa area is large but messy.
After paying, you get a large grey towel and enter the locker room. There are unlocked lockers for shoes and lockable lockers for clothes. I mistakenly disrobed in the shoe area until I realized the different sets. Adjacent to the lockers are two rooms: an open lounging room and a heated crystal room with a heated floor. There’s a big window and a door in the crystal room.
The locker room has sinks, a bathroom, a water cooler, and an adjacent door to the massage area. Beyond the locker room is a door to the wet area. To the left are three shower stalls: one hot, one cold, and one I didn’t try. A sign says only two people in the shower at a time. The first plunge pool is cold with a giant ceiling faucet/fountain. The hot tub had two guys chatting, so I only went in when they were away. To the right of the tubs are the three wet rooms: the farthest back is the steam room, then the middle is the sauna, and the closest is the wet sauna. The saunas weren’t very hot, but the steam was very hot. It was nice to go from the sauna to the cold tub and back again.
After about 30-40 minutes, I sat in the lounge area and relaxed. An employee, not a security guard, approached me and offered a 30-minute massage for $44. It was great.
After the massage, I explored the steam and sauna rooms again, intermixed with the tubs, and then took a shower before leaving.
Final review: These facilities are functional but not luxurious. They’re not creepy like a certain NJ spa that’s now closed.

It’s a decent Korean Spa, just not as big as others I’ve been to. The hot tubs are nice, but they are more like a big pool. There is also two saunas and a steam room in the mens only area.
