the staff was attentive and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. demetri's recommendations for local visits and dining were invaluable. we stayed in the shakespeare roomwith a hot tub on the balcony, a good addition. the tasting menu at the restaurant created a sensational dining experience.
during my stay, i noticed the gym equipment was inadequate. this limited my ability to maintain my fitness routine. investing in updated and more comprehensive equipment could greatly improve the wellness experience .
