the room upgrade upon arrival was a pleasant surprise. the location proved very convenient. the room was clean and well maintained. i thought the hotel offered good value overall.
the rooftop pool closed quite early in the evening. this limited my ability to enjoy it during the later hours. extended hours would be beneficial.

The hotel sits in a great location right on the harbour. Restaurants were close, and it was easy to walk everywhere. The room was clean. I had a harbour view which was nice to see.
The room felt dated, and the furniture seemed flimsy. The shower was not good. It was actually the worst I have experienced on a holiday. There were not many power points in the room. This was inconvenient for charging devices.
