Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The hotel itself was fantastic and staff welcoming. Bed was comfortable and roon spaciaous with plenty of storage space. Down side, mould on ceilings, exhaust fan not working and full of dirt and dust, really difficult to fill the kettle for a cuppa.
Enjoyed my stay, friendly staff.
Although a big downside, music there was playing during the early night at a decent level, then abruptly was turned up at around 12am super loud on full blast that my room windows and doors were rattling and shaking with the over the top bass until 2:30 am.
While it sounded like people constantly picking and skipping songs until they found one's they wanted to hear and blasted it on full blast!!!
The music level went from an average sound level to rediculous full blast that shook my entire room for hours and hours!!!!!
Who turns music up full blast at 12am when it was playing on decent level for the entire evening before 12am, especially when you have hotel guests that have paid good money for accommodation!!
My Room was $400 a night and we didn't get much sleep at all.
Would have given a 5 Star rating until that happened at midnight!! 😑
Beautiful location
Water front only few hundred meters down the road
Shops and gym only few minutes walk
Clean area
The staff are very helpful and friendly
Great energy and service at the restaurant
The food menu has covered a great range of choices
Compliments to the chef
On entering room , it smelt pretty bad which is unfortunate because there really is nowhere to go or hide from
a bad smell. I think it may have been the drains but everything else seemed to be ok. Definitely would look elsewhere first
Room very comfortable and clean. Walking distance to shops and public transport, and goof facilities on site. Room however upstairs without lift so had a struggle carrying heavy luggage up.
