“For the price, the facilities are exceptional: think private baths with bath salts, massage chairs, and even handheld massage guns; it's unexpectedly generous. The inclusive room service breakfast and cheap, around-the-clock menu adds significant value; the staff's initial confusion about non-romantic stays is a minor blip in an otherwise sweet experience.”
