Facility is good, has a heated swimming pool and a gym. Wood fire pizza from rooftop restaurant is so tasty. Location is good, easy access to everything by car. However, the bathroom needs to have hooks for towels if you want customers to reuse towels. Also if the rooms have balcony it would add extra layer of comfort.
