Very convenient, comfortable stay.
Pros:

Location was great. The room was very spacious and mostly clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The shower could do with a deep clean of the mould on the grouting. Pillows were not the best for my liking though there was a variety to chose from. Service of room on both days was not done until after 3 pm - by this stage we had been out for the day and returned for a rest and shower before heading out though room was not serviced so had to wait. With the cost of the room (which we stayed for 3 nights) you would think that car parking would be included but it was extra.

Will be back again.
Pros:

We liked the location of the hotel. Walking distance to the wharf. Hotel staffs are friendly. Love the hotel breakfast, it’s delicious.

Cons:

We stayed on the second floor. So we can heard the traffic and people shouting occasionally at night. Overall, it’s still bearable.
