Rebecca

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We had a budget room. It was small, musty and old. Drainage in the 1970’s bathroom was horrible, showering with water up to your ankles. You could hear everything on the street as well as in the above apartment. It was nothing like the photos, the room was more like a storeroom than a motel room. It was very disappointing.

The views were amazing. The location was excellent. If there was any negatives, it would be the noise on Saturday night - either from the hotel, or guests through the night.

Nice view of the bay from the room at level 2. Not insulated from the noise off the streets at night, made by patrons of the restaurant/bar. Walking distance to shops and restaurants.
