Positioned within a spa hotel that is praised for its cleanliness and organization, the pools are augmented by the hotel's beautiful views, creating a serene setting for relaxation. However, some guests note that the indoor pools are considered small for the hotel's size, with occasional maintenance issues such as missing tiles and cleanliness concerns.
