During my stay, I was thoroughly impressed by the friendly and accommodating staff who made me feel welcomed right from check-in. The heated rooftop pool was a highlight, providing a perfect place to unwind with amazing views. The cleanliness of the hotel exceeded my expectations, and I loved the quality of the spa treatments I received. However, while the dining options were good, I thought having more variety on the menu would enhance the experience. Overall, it was a delightful stay with some minor areas for improvement.
