Amazing and will be back again :)
Pros:

I loved the facilities and how attentive and helpful staff were. Room was absolutely perfect and extremely comfortable:)

Cons:

There isn’t any lifts (that I was aware of) but not a big deal just if someone needed one

Loved our stay and will certainly return.
Pros:

The spa access is really great; we loved the available options (pools, sauna, salt room, bar) and that we could spend nearly the entire day of check-in there, even before the room was available. All of the staff are exceptionally kind and accommodating.

Cons:

We wanted to book treatments but they were already booked up. We weren’t aware of this at time of booking. Room with a terrace and outdoor tub didn’t feel very private, as balconies are right overhead, and also can hear the neighbors rather well.
