Weekend stay review
Pros:

Location and spacious room

Cons:

Hotel is looking tired and needs a revamp. Both smoke detectors in room were missing. Toilet cistern very slow filling and noisy. No ramp for people to pull luggage to reception, have to carry luggage. TV is very small for room size.

Pros:

Security and breakfast were superb for us
Staff were very friendly. Location was also superb.
We really enjoyed our stay
Thanks to Dolphin Beach hotel management and staff.

Cons:

The place is very good, however we experienced the following minor challenges
1. Carpet floor, some of my fellow mates have chronic respiratory conditions, so they were slightly affected
2. Cleanliness and toiletries were a little bit decorating almost everyday.

Pros:

The only thing I liked was the views and the location.

Cons:

Everything other than the location we did not like. The reception was extremely bad. The apartment. Number 16 was in a poor condition. The carpet are not in good shape. The kitchen drawers are loose. The water ceiling fire spray are broken. We got sick on the sushi. The restaurant manager gave us no help. I did not get a refund for our bad sushi. We left the hotel without staying the one night . Not a good experience at all.
