i found the rooms to have beautiful design and immense comfort. the beds were cozy. the spa area provided a serene experience. attention to detail throughout my stay was clearly evident.

i encountered a delay during check-in. i was offered prosecco , but consuming it while standing felt awkward. a more personalized greeting would better suit a hotel of this caliber.
