Great location & very central to everything. We had a 2 bedroom appartment with fantastic water views. Room could do with an upgrade, but all in all a great place.

Great view from 12th floor apartment but a little run down. Hair drier not working. Fabulous kitchen requirements. Didn't see anyone to comment on service. Good location for cafes, Esplanade, etc.
