charming stay!

i found the hotel by pure luck, and i'm so happy i did. it felt so cute, with so many thoughtful details! i noticed the piano and opera music, also the amazing artwork. i especially loved the treats by the pool! fritz was also very friendly and helpful.
i thought the gym could use some improvement. the air conditioning wasn't working well, and some equipment needed maintenance. it was a bit uncomfortable to work out in that environment.
