Very short walk into the heart of surfers, or one tram stop. Rooms are a bit dated but were clean and comfortable. The elevators are very dated. The lobby and restaurants are very nice. Easy parking at the door to check in with basement parking very handy.

All the staff were very helpful and polite. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast was buffet style and very plentiful with lots of choices. On Friday and Saturday evening there is the option to pay for a seafood buffet which we did and really enjoyed it. The location is good for transport, restaurants and proximity to the beach
