Relaxing stay

This was the relaxing experience i was looking for after a short business trip. The service was excellent and the warm pool was amazing. I wish i had more time to take advantage of the longer day trips that the front desk can arrange. I also loved the neighborhood with plenty of good restaurants within 20 minutes walk.
