The view was incredible! The staff were so accommodating and we would love to come back again. Our room was getting a bit tired so I hope there is a reno coming but I’d still stay again next week!

The views are incredible! Apartments are spacious and very clean and well maintained. If you have heavy luggage it is difficult as there is no lift. We found the hot water to be only luke warm in the shower. We had a great stay.

Hi Craig, Many thanks for your review, we do have a building with a lift and if required we can ensure a booking is placed in that building. We found the problem with the hot water which was the hot water cylinder mixing valve. The problem has since been rectified. Once again thanks for your feedback. Regards Steve
