Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location is great, however, you can't use the verandah from dusk until dawn. Instead of sitting outside watching the harbour/river inlet at dusk and night, you must go inside and close the blockout curtains as the very, very, very bright lights illuminating the Esplanade signage are oppresively bright on the verandahs and stay on until dawn. The shower needs some silicon as the plummer and tiler have channeled the water around the drain to the centre of the bathroom (genius).

Loved the view and most of the setup. Bathroom was scarey with steps up and so close to the toilet door dangerous No door on the bathroom and shower floor sloped the wrong way to allow water to drain.

We like the easy undercover and convenient parking. Friendly check-in and lift access to the higher floors. Rooms are modern and well fitted for a comfortable stay. Upper level riverside rooms are especially nice to sit out on the balcony and soak up the views over a drink of choice.
