fine gem in the city
amazing views perfect relaxation mirrored lounge fantastic interiors
This hotel impressed me greatly. the mirrored lounge features fantastic interiors. the pool area is surrounded by cypresses and lavender. It offered perfect relaxation after a day of sightseeing. i appreciated the rooftop views, they are amazing though the empty rooftop bar was a bit misleading.
The minibar did not include any complementary drinks. I expected more considering the price of the room
