Our stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable, with standout moments including attentive staff and a luxurious thermal spa. The room was spacious and beautifully furnished, although it could have been cleaner. Dining was a highlight, especially the hearty breakfast, but service during peak times could've been more prompt. Overall, it felt worth the price paid, but improvements in room maintenance and dining service speed would enhance the experience.
