What guests say about the pool
Knowing our room wasn’t ready, she had cappuccinos waiting and offered us a complimentary breakfast while we settled in. When our room was finally prepared, she didn’t simply hand off the keys at the front desk. She personally delivered them to us on the stunning rooftop deck, where we’d been relaxing and soaking in the views.
While it's a stunning view, I wouldn't reserve time on your trip for the pool.
