Reviews
It is generally clean, except the smoking chamber is in the middle of the bright bridge. Quite disappointed that a more thought out place could have and should have been designed. Equipment was poorly available in the rooms, given the price for the rooms, and I cannot imagine what it'll be like to be there for a week long camp, especially for rehabilitation.
The gym equipment is basic and could be improved. The pool is nice though.
