Best part of the stay was the pool and the room size which quite generous, everything else was either underwhelming or disappointing. Fine for a place to rest your head for a night or two, but would not look to return due a number of issues across the board.

Great stay, perfectly located. Not too close to the esplanade that the noise affects you at night, and not too far that you need a cab. Friendly staff, courteous and helpful with booking attraction tickets.
