8/10 Good
"Was worth the extra $ for the partial water view. Nice touch of extra water provided each day. Elevators could take awhile as they seemed to favour trips to the roof. Cleaning daily could have been better. Water glasses were never replaced or washed over three nights. Great location for the beach and the amenities at the end of the beach. Desk staff were helpful. Linens and beds were comfortable and good quality."
