We didn’t like very late notice that the resort heated indoor pool was going go be closed for maintenance through our stay! The resort, to its credit, granted us compensafion by upgrading us to a lakeside room and accommodating our requesf for early check-in.

Large rooms!
The history hallway is super cool!
The art gallery hallway is beautiful!

What could be improved: Couldn't check in early! But that was no worries as we went for happy hour before check-in! The resort credits are split between different places, and you get half at check-in and half at check out. So you can't use them all during your first stay, which isn't explained by booking.com

Spacious rooms, well equipped kitchen.

What could be improved: Not enough chairs in the pool area, more chairs or space to put your clothes/footwear would have been nice.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Very good amenities but I wish there were still arcades for kids. The room we booked had enough space for our family of five with a small kitchenette if you wanted to cook.
