Excellent Accommodation
Pros:

The location is simply outstanding. We had a 3 bed Ocean View, and quite frankly once we were on our bedroom balcony I didn't want to leave! The accommodation facilities were excellent. An easy 10 minute walk to the centre of Freo, with Marina Restaurants much closer if you wanted. The views were incredible, stunning sunsets, and so peaceful looking out over the Marina. This will be my "go to" place whenever I visit Perth.

Cons:

Having to leave and fly back to the UK on our last day!

Lost a customer forever.
Pros:

Location was fabulous. Most of the staff could not do enough for us. My husband is in a wheelchair and they were very accomodating. When we decided that 13 steps to our room would be difficult, they suggested a room accessible from the lift. Nothing was too much trouble. We paid for the upgrade. Always smiling and very helpful. Made our first stay very enjoyable. Check out was notfuss.

Cons:

We came back a week later after travelling up north. We had a similar room booked and was quoted $31 for the upgrade. I said it that for one or two nights. The reply was for 2 nights. We could have stayed at the Esplanade for approximately $100 per night cheaper with a $5 breakfast, but decided to stay here again. Had a lovely stay again. When checking out it all went pear shaped. It is such a shame when one person ruins all the good work of all of the others. From the minute I tried to check out, I was hit with "you were undercharged for your second night, so we are going to have to charge you. I was a bit shocked as it was agreed when we checked out the weekend before. Then, "you had 2 breakfasts, we need to charge you for those". I explained that I had paid cash for them. "There is nothing here, and she proceeded to tell me 3 times that I needed to pay for them. 3 times I said that I had paid cash. She then said she would investigate. We were charged another $31 on the account and for some reason another $31 was put on the card. One of these was reversed after phone calls when we got home. So, I could go on more but it is now boring. I have worked in customer service for 20 years and I know that the last experience you have with a business it the one that you remember, despite all of the good done prior. I was made to feel like I was being deceptive. So, I am sorry but we won't be staying here ever again and I would urge other travellers to make sure that you get everything in writing and also investigate other options, as there are plenty.

Evrything was seamless. Staff was professional, rooms were clean. But not all amenities were available.
Pros:

The environment. Location. Cleanliness.

Cons:

It’s a bit costly. Reserved only for very special occasions
