My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The breathtaking views from the rooftop were a definite highlight, enhancing my overall experience. I also loved the luxurious spa where I had a wonderfully relaxing treatment. However, the dining options could use more variety, particularly at breakfast, as there were limited choices. Additionally, while the service was good, I felt it could be a little more personalized for a truly exceptional experience.
