The location of the hotel made it easy for me to view the Sea Festival parade and to access the festivities. Parking was inexpensive and on-site, and staff was friendly. The fitness club was closed early on Saturday, so I couldn't use the pool or get a work-out, which is a shame because it looked like an excellent facility. The massage was very good and not costly, and again very convenient. The Sky Bar is a pleasure for the view and not expensive, even if the 1664 beer is not the genuine article. The room was not cleaned during my two-day stay. The elevators are old, creaky and small.
