"Hip couples with serious pampering needs will enjoy this exclusive pleasure dome nestled among the Hivernage megachain hotels. The pool area is small, but rooms are more boutique than brash."

If your wallet is up to it, request a junior suite for the pool view through the wonderful bay window that comes with it.
