Great but no wifi

The wifi was awful, connection kept dropping out and more often than not i had to connect to the free Telstra. I had to wash all the cups and dishes as they were greasy. Otherwise it was great. The view was amazing! The Esplanade and night markets were right outside. Loads of bars and restaurants just seconds away. We watched loads of birds flying past our balcony.
