vault spa experience

clean steam roomthoughtful lightingconvenient location
The spa stood out. Its location in a former bank vault felt unique. i noticed the well-lit hallways, which helped prevent any enclosed feeling. the steam room was especially clean, and i appreciated the thoughtful lighting. i also loved the accessibility to local spots.
the room had some noise issues. it was located on the side of the building near a nightclub, and the noise persisted until late.
Facilities
9/10
The spa features a large, cool pool, which i found refreshing after the steam room. there were about fifteen loungers available around the pool area. The area also included a sauna and two treatment rooms, and fresh towels are readily available.

The gold bar had some really nice cocktails. I liked that. i also enjoyed the quirky spa facilities. They were quite unique. the location was great. It made it easy to explore the city.
The drain in the bathroom had a bad smell. It was pretty strong. i found some mould in the bathroom grouting. It needed better cleaning. also, the tv in the room was small. It seemed too small for the space.
