"Great and spacious rooms at waterfront"

9.0

- perfect location - great rooms and bathrooms - high quality of the rooms - safe parking included

- Breakfast takes forever as they need to go to the other hotel to pick up the orders. So process is as follows: it takes more than 10 min until someone arrives to take the order. Then the guy needs to run to the other hotel to pick up the order. Really the only big drawback here - people from other hotel walk through the breakfast area and they also can use the same pool - this is not a big problem but counter intuitive to the privacy idea of this hotel

"Recommend for a stay at the Waterfront"

10.0

Everything was great. If you’re looking for a waterfront stay, definitely recommend the place. The pool is shared with the nearby hotels so gets quite busy during the afternoons. Special thanks to Donovan and the rest of the staff who made our stay wonderful!

"Beautiful and convenient location. Loved our room and bathroom. Pool area needs some tlc."

8.0

I loved our room and bathroom. Clean, large and luxurious. We were greeted with a big smile.

The lawn had dog poo on it. The lawn was not cut. The breakfast area furniture was just standing around. Looked like a dumping ground. The sweet room cupboard was chipped and tatty. The outdoor staff was missing. The outdoor pool bar has no character. Put some plants in there. Make it homely........

"Very good"

8.0

Great location

Asked for a quiet room sometime before our stay - were put in a downstairs room right next door to the breakfast room and near the entry to the property - noise from movement in the room above and noise from people coming and going, and noise from chairs being dragged along the wooden floor in the breakfast room.
