The location of this hotel is excellent. It is just across the street from the water. It is close to many restaurants and coffee shops, yet the neighbourhood is quiet. There is olenty of free parking onsite too. We had an oceanview executive room on the first floor which looked recently renovated and was large. Reception was pleasant and checkin was easy. I took one star off because our room was right across from the elevators so I could hear it at night. There is also no safe in our room which should be standard.

Was not allowed to sit outside on balcony and smoke. If room left with excess rubbish would be charged for cleaning. I’m a housekeeper and have never heard of extra charge for cleaning. Did not feel welcome.Gad to pay to get a towel to use in pool. Should be supplied. staff never spoke even when we left. Wasn’t even asked if we enjoyed our stay. Very sad as such a beautiful spot with amazing views. Wouldn’t recomnend. I could keep going but I think that’s enough
