    Use 'tienes' for informal 'you'; 'tiene' is formal or third‑person singular.

    Both nouns are masculine; the article must match.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking countries the word 'spa' is widely understood, but in more formal contexts you might hear 'balneario' (especially in Spain) or simply 'centro de bienestar'. When speaking to staff in a hotel, using the formal '¿Tiene...' shows respect, while '¿Tienes...' is fine with friends or in casual settings.
