Very nicely organised, all useful information was provided during check-in, and the rooms were pretty and had plenty of space. They provided cabinets with embedded locks and tented towels for free. I stayed in two different rooms. The first one had four bathrooms (amazing), but had small cabinets that made it a bit inconvenient to fit my stuff. The second room had larger cabinets, but had only two bathrooms. This is nitpicking though, the whole experience was amazing.
