Although our stay was comfortable, the room was very small. It was a bit annoying to have to go through 2 doors to get into our room from the hallway. We chose Aquarius as it was close to the hospital but I wouldn't stay here again. It might be different in the 1 bedroom apartments but the studio was very very small.

Accommodation is excellent, however on check in there is never anywhere to park whilst doing so. The "Visitor" spots are always full day and night so you try to find a park on the street and wander in.
