My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had a really comfy bed with feather down pillows nicely arranged and a lovely rose on one pillow. The view facing the mountains and courtyard was spectacular. I enjoyed the big bath, and the view of the pool was just perfect. The only downside was that some areas seemed a bit dated.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were really beautiful with a very comfortable bed, a fantastic shower, and a gorgeous swimming pool. The place was loud and could get noisy at night, but overall big, with high vaulted ceilings, clean, and appeared to be recently remodeled. The hotel offers a very well-equipped fitness room, very good food, and a great view of the mountain.

The hotel is an amazing property with beautiful rooms, very modern amenities, and stunning views of the Mountain. The bed is extremely comfortable, the shower fantastic, and the swimming pool gorgeous. The fitness room is well-equipped, the food is very good, and the location offers a great view. However, the pool menu could be more varied and offer healthier options like salads and grilled fish tacos.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic overall. The rooms were large and spacious, with a really comfy bed adorned with 5 feather down pillows all lined up neatly, and a lovely rose on one pillow. The rooms were not only spacious but also very clean, and the decor was just stunning. However, the service was horrible, unfriendly, unhelpful, and inconsistent, especially at the Hearth 61 bar. On the bright side, the location was beautiful and well-maintained, providing a great place to relax and cool down in the scorching 42-degree Celsius heat.
