Property was average. No shower curtain so water would splash outside the bath shower. Cleanliness average, sink not cleaned and very low on toilet paper - we had to buy our own toilet paper.

I liked that it was close to the waterfront and great restaurants.
We had issues with noise however. There are lots of signs around promoting being considerate of guests around being quiet. However our room although lovely it was 2 units away from the hotel's restaurant and bar area which was actually very noisy and impacted on our second night's stay. Wouldn't want to spend another Saturday night due to this.

Overall it was a nice stay
The room was nice but the bathroom needs a little spruce up as its looking a little tired. It was clean which was the main thing. The beds were very comfortable & the receptionist at check in was very nice & friendly. My card was charged for items we didn't use so I rang up and the lovely lady on the phone said they'll reverse which was she did.

There is quite a lot of noise in the location, particularly on Friday and Saturday nights. Many cars driving past and people making noise late into the night. It can be quite disturbing when you’re trying to sleep.

Hi,
I booked the room which was a ‘superior with spa bath‘. As shown on the website there was a spa inside the room and one bed. Our room did not have a spa in the room, it was in the bathroom instead. We also had one king bed an one single bed which took up most of the room. i thought the photos were quite deceiving.
Also when we arrived we were asked to pay a $250 bond which was not stated online.
In some areas of our room we couldn’t get wifi.
I was very disappointed in my first stay at the hotel. And properly wouldn’t come back.
Thanks
Sarah

We had people above us who did not sit down till after 4am. They were coming and going all day and night which led me to believe that they were operating a business from there. I could not wait to leave. Left at 7am
