I stopped by a place last Sunday, the name of which I will withhold for reasons that will be apparent. After finishing everything, the girl and I chatted about the whole atmosphere in DC recently. Her English was not great, but from what I gathered, the few remaining AMPs are keeping a low profile. She told me that Gold (I think it is now Star, but she called it Gold, which is the 2nd floor at 1829 M Street) was visited by police about five days earlier, so it would have been around February 10. She said her friend works there, and told her about it. If I understood her correctly, there were no customers there at the time, but the police checked IDs for everyone there, and issued no tickets. She said the police issued only a "notice," which I understood to mean a warning, and she said the police also told eveyone to "go home." So, according to that story, I think they would have closed at that point and, according to the review by Bobby M, this would be exactly correct, as he said he tried visiting the next day and couldn't get in. He also said that someone from the 3rd floor told him that the 2nd floor was closed.
They seem to have reopened, according to the reviews, but the reason I wanted to post this was for something else my girl told me. After explaining the story of the police visit to Gold (i.e., Star), she told me that all of the remaining spas were nervous. Apparently the word among the spas is that there may be a concerted effort to crack down over the next couple of months. The girl I was with sad she is very nervous, and she knows that the other girls, in all of the remaining spas, are also nervous. Since what she told me about the police visit to Star seems to be accurate, I wanted to pass this along. For the next couple of months, at least, we should all be just a bit more careful. Hopefully, this too will pass, but I see a trend here that does not make me optimistic.
