Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were uncomfortably hot, and the cleanliness service was slow, but the location was fantastic, with easy access to various attractions. The service had its mixed bags, with some staff being great while others not so much. The dining experience was subpar, but the presence of a bar and bottle shop on-site was a plus.
The hotel offered a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were very humid but had stunning balconies overlooking the marina, while the service was outstanding with helpful staff always available. The location was convenient, although it could use some improvements for safety. The dining options were average, and the facilities provided good amenities.
The hotel had excellent rooms for the price paid, although the original room had an issue with the vanity unit. The ground-floor room facing the car park wasn't ideal. The service was very nice and friendly overall, with some minor setbacks like the TV not connecting to the internet for smart TV functions. The location was convenient, especially for those wanting to avoid the CBD. The dining experience was basic but decent, with fresh food each morning and staff willing to share local insights. The facilities were satisfactory, though more lounge beds would be a nice addition.
