    Traffic was a little loud at times.

    Had a nice little kitchenette, which was great. There was a bench overlooking at the window which was nice to have something to eat at or do some work on my laptop. The shower was hot.

    Just the taps, but nothing a. handyman could fix. They still worked OK.

    Excellent room - comfortable, warm and pleasant decor - (although some minor maintenance is needed with taps in the bathroom, but not a deal breaker)

    Location was a minus but not overly. Shower needed a lot of work as there was a major leek somewhere.

    Free parking was a bonus . Nice walk along the bay foreshore.
