I visited the spa today after not going for many years, my last visit was in the first couple of years after it opened and I had enjoyed it immensely back then. I had read some recent reviews that gave a negative impression of the spa, from dirty floors, overcrowding, and saunas that were not hot enough and smelt of feet (:)) and my experience couldn't have been further from that. We picked a quie...

Second Floor Wellness Suite with Roman and Georgian steam rooms, infrared sauna, ic...

The sauna rooms, located on the middle level, are clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend the two-hour spa treatment—it was both ...
