    poor service
    dirty room

    the receptionist seemed like she was having a bad day and the room cleanliness was questionable—found a dead cockroach. also, after expecting some kind of special treatment, i was utterly dissapointed. for 300+ dollars per night, I thought I might get a little bit of red-carpet treatment, but nope, what a shame.

    stunning views
    lack of privacy

    The newly refurbished waterfront view unit offered stunning estuary views and the local toiletries in the bathroom were a nice touch.

    The lack of privacy was noticeable, as people from neighboring units could easily see into our room.

    Unboxing my experience

    My recent stay was enhanced by top-notch, personable customer service and a beautiful water view right outside my window. The room was clean and well-equipped, making it comfortable for our trip. The onsite laundry facilities were a lifesaver for our travels, and the nearby coffee shop added a nice touch to our mornings!

    italian inspired bathroom
    exposed patio
    noisy neighbors

    We stayed in the Premier Suite Spa Bath Patio Water Front, and it was absolutely fantastic! The room was spacious and offered stunning views we couldn't get enough of. The kitchen corner was handy for snacks, and the beautiful Italian inspired bathroom added a touch of luxury. Waking up to a lovely sunrise was a wonderful way to start each day.

    The outdoor patio felt a bit exposed to the neighbors.
