Over rated, stated it was executive deluxe supreme, this was a queen sized room very hard bed no comfort at all. The renovations were 20 years ago. Rooms were nit cleaned as it was a public holiday but were chatged holiday rates. The views are the only positive.

The view was what I really enjoyed. Just sitting on the small balcony was lovely. Was close to eating places and the Strand walk is always lovely. The bathroom needs to be updated a little as our bathtub was slightly cracking.

The accommodation is in a great location and within walking distances to a range of eating establishments. The rooms are clean and tidy but a bit dated but the awesome views made up for that. I didn't like that I had to park away from accommodation as the car park was full.
