excellent waterfront stay

great locationrooftop areahelpful staffawkward layout
i liked the location right on the waterfront. the rooftop area featured a splash pool. the staff were cute and helpful (especially with directions).
the room layout seemed awkward to me. the bathroom had a stopper that prevented the door from hitting the toilet, but it also posed a tripping hazard. a door opening outward would have worked better.
Facilities

the gym has treadmills and stationary bikes . the splash pool is located on the rooftop. the restaurant is open throughout the day with a diverse menu.
Rooms

our room included usb ports and tea and coffee facilities. the walk-in shower had rainfall and handheld shower heads. ample storage space was available (though my colleague had trouser hangers).
