| Closed San Mateo spa gets new owners
Those services will include massages, facials, waxings, mud and foil wraps, as well as access to a steam room and sauna. Karim and Zarrin took over all of the equipment and merchandise left at the spa, including massage tables, washers and dryers, facial creams and an assortment of dancing gnomes and Betty Boop dolls. Sandra Caron closed its doors after failing to make its October rent, and employees say they weren't paid or given notice. The state Department of Industrial Relations said last month that two former employees filed claims against the spa for unpaid wages. One is for three months' work valued at $6,000, and another is for $270, the department said. Former clients have also complained to the San Mateo Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown San Mateo Association about unredeemed gift certificates.
