Acceptable Stay with Room Issues

The staff was helpful. They were available when needed.
The room I booked did not match the pictures online. The outdoor jetted tub was cold and unusable. The swimming pool was also too cold for swimming even on warm days.

Average stay despite some drawbacks

cold water high price
The hotel offered breakfast with a wide choice of options.
My room did not resemble the pictures shown. I had a room with a jacuzzi, but the water remained cold. The swimming pool was also too cold for use, even on warm days. I felt the price did not align with what other hotels in the area offer.
