Marina

Travelled with family
The hotel rooms are very noise translucent. One could hear the neighbors walking, talking, and even snoring. It's an old property, the facilities are bare minimum (though better than a motel). The cleaning staff did a very cursory job of cleaning 3 out of 5 nights of our stay. Even the trash can was not emptied one of the days. The only redeeming point is it's location- very close to the Intercity and local baybus stations and within walking distance to Eat Street.

This hotel was pleasing from the outside, but the rooms were small and worn. Decor was awkward and old and not complimentary to the exterior appearance. The bathroom was small, dated and cringy. Everything worked but it was not a comfortable stay.

Nice ambiance, great location, superb staff. There is no lift/elevator which makes it difficult if the rooms are on the upper floor. However, the staff is very helpful in taking luggage up if needed.

We didn't receive the room we booked. The room we received was dated and nothing like it looked on the website. We made a reservation for high tea and when we showed up they had no record of it. Parking is limited. You have to reserve the heated pools/ spa which are private use only, but during our time other guests came in.
