I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room, though marketed as having a private pool, is actually shared with the adjoining suite, albeit with a privacy screen. However, the noise from the nearby Colcohio restaurant's outdoor bar was quite disruptive. On the upside, the room offers a bath and separate shower, two vanity sinks, a lounge area, a private terrace, and a plunge pool, which was a nice touch.
