The staff are friendly and helpful. They have many fitness classes to choose both in the morning and evening. Yoga, body balance, Pilate and pickle balls are my favourate. Their fitness instructors are professional, experienced and caring. Sauna is popular for social chats with the swimmers after fitness classes. 😃
