misleading picture tiny sauna

The sauna was a real letdown. It was advertised as a key feature, a reason I booked. Instead, I found it hidden in a squash court. The picture online was misleading, and the sauna itself was tiny, with no windows. It lost heat fast. I had to get a staff member to even find it, frankly I think it should not be advertised at all
