"Our apartment had a lovely outlook over the river. It was near the ‘new’ bridge but was very quiet, very clean & well appointed. The bed was comfortable & bathroom pristine. It was close to shops & restaurants which were an easy walk along the waterfront or through the back of the hotel to a mall nearby for supplies. Our car is high so we couldn’t use the underground parking but there was ample parking available at the back of the hotel."
