We only stayed 1 night but the pool looked amazing! We didn't get a chance to use it. The bakery attached to the hotel was really good. We enjoyed the sauna and steamroom. Overall it was a nice hotel and room. We got complimentary drinks at the hotel bar which was nice. All of the staff were nice and we were happy to have a free shuttle to and from the airport.
