“The private hot tubs are undoubtedly the star here, offering a wonderfully secluded soak that feels deeply indulgent. Rooms themselves are quite impressive, feeling both spacious and thoughtfully appointed for a comfortable stay, even if the immediate surroundings are rather quiet. It's a place that certainly knows how to create a private escape.”
