I enjoyed the comfort and ascetic of the room. We unfortunately had a neighbor with a loud dog who was barking often, but after a chat with the staff, things settled and we were able to enjoy our time. The pool was the most unique feature in the hotel, as it was warm where the hot spa was not. Thought it was odd, but not unpleasant.
