My technician for both was Dao, who I give 5 stars! She's the real deal she is professional, does meticulous work, and is a kick to chat with. On this trip I also visited their spa for a pedi and eyebrow wax. There are also plenty of good dining options, from fancy to casual. It's a beautiful area and a great place to just chill. The bathroom has a large soak tub, plus huge shower. The beds are extremely comfortable with very soft sheets.

Based on our playing, we get a 2-night comp stay (plus free play). If you're not actively drinking, eating, or smoking, your masks needs to be on. As far as their mask policy on the floor, it's pretty straight forward (and repeatedly announced overhead). We appreciate their COVID policies and enforcement which allow us to feel safe while we're on the casino floor.
