underwhelming stay
uncomfortable sofa bed carpet stains
the room was clean, so that met my basic expectations.
The promised sofa in my superior double room was just an uncomfortable pull-out sofa bed. it was small and certainly not spacious. I also noticed stains on the carpet, especially near the bin. i found it all quite disappointing for the price.

a perfect romantic escape
clean room scented toiletries functional gym delicious food
The room was very clean. Toiletries smelled lovely! the gym had three treadmills, a few weights, and two stationary bikes. i loved the restaurant. The food was delicious. it was a tender weekend. the pool area included twenty loungers and a shaded section. the sauna was hot! the steam room provided great relaxation. the hotel provided convenient access to the parking area. It was easy to load and unload our luggage.
the hairdryer in the bathroom, though functional, looked a little old.

I found the staff very helpful . they promptly held our bags upon arrival. the shower was also particularly nice, offering good water pressure. i got a discount on parking. I thought it was a nice touch.
I noticed some cigarette smoking outside the entrance! this wasn't ideal for a fresh welcome. An alternative designated area could improve this.
