The staff are very helpful and friendly, the rooms are a good size and well designed with plenty of room for 2 guests. We had a view of the water which was vwry pleasant. The bathrooms are very clean and well designed. It is easy walking distance to a number of restaurants and shops and easy walking to The Bay Pavillions entertainment centre.

The best part was sleeping to the sound of waves splashing against the rocks. Nice view (ocean view room). Close to eateries and pubs. Access to club across the road. Parking could be cumbersome as there are limited spots.

We got a room facing the river and the view is amazing! The room is spacious and clean. Bed is comfortable. The Soldiers Club is just opposite the road and it's a good choice for dinner. Short drives to maccas and KFC. The only reason why I am not giving 5 stars is because I think the receptionist (who I think only work on week days) could have done better in making her guests feel welcome. She can start doing this simply by smiling 😃.
