My stay was quite disappointing overall. The hotel retains some charm and offers therapeutic mineral springs, but the condition of the rooms and cleanliness were major letdowns. While the dining options were decent, the constant noise from poolside activities made relaxation difficult. Unfortunately, I felt like the hotel is falling short of its potential and needs significant improvement to restore its former glory.

My birthday trip to the hotel was full of ups and downs. The highlight was definitely the wonderful live music by Sacred Mirrors, which enhanced our experience and made us want to stay longer. On the downside, the pools were not as hot as I remembered, and the rooms could use an update, especially the carpets and furniture. Overall, it was a decent stay with some enjoyable aspects, but there are areas that need considerable improvement.

My stay had its ups and downs. The hotel is definitely affordable, making it appealing for budget-conscious travelers, and the variety of pools is nice for relaxation. However, the cleanliness of the rooms left much to be desired, and I faced some issues with pests that were quite alarming. Additionally, the dining options were very basic. Given the price, it might be worth it if you don't expect luxury.
