How it compares in Portland
Its $35 drop-in sits below the Portland median of $40, across the 9 studios here that publish one. It does not publish a plunge temperature (3 of the 13 Portland studios we track do) — worth asking when you book. Communal access puts it with 5 of the 13 studios we track here; the rest run a different model.
