Hızlı Özet: A stunningly photogenic romantic compound that occasionally prioritizes aesthetics over deep-clean maintenance.
@elinaways tarafından değerlendirildi: I completely fell in love with this place. The private outdoor tub was a dream, and sipping cocktails at the rooftop bar while watching the sunset over the mountains was unforgettable. It’s the perfect spot to just disconnect and soak up the desert vibes.

💡The 'resort fee' is steep but actually includes parking, which is rare for downtown.
💡You might find dust on the ceiling vents; housekeeping focuses heavily on the 'visible' surfaces.

💡Room service from Azucar is available, but it can be slow during peak dinner hours.
