Hot water was dangerously hot.
The view, the people, the accommodations.
Lovely balcony and living room view from the well-appointed lounge (2 bedroom unit). Bedrooms tucked away quietly downstairs.
Position of motel enhancing views of Harbour, ferries and weather was beautiful
Location was great. Views lovely.
Interiors and furniture a bit dated. Would have expected more updated facilities for this price range.
Great location, fabulous view. Room had everything we could need.
Bed and pillows not the most comfortable, but really not too bad at all.
The view and closeness to town was great.
The parking was steep and difficult and there was no milk in the fridge
Good location. Clean room
Sound insulation
Amazing views! Very comfortable room.
Check out time was 10am and there was someone knocking on the door at 10:01.
Nice room and location, very conveinent. Recomeended by co-worker.
Bed a bit too soft for personal preference, but otherwise no issues
The interior was amazing, the space in the unit was fantastic, staff were welcoming and very helpful. Would definitely choose to stay here again and recommend to others.
Very friendly greeting, large spacious apartment, and a fantastic view. Although very dated the cleanliness didn't make it feel it. Highly recommend.
