shuttle service guest microwave nearby attractions
The hotel provided a convenient shuttle service to the waterfront. This ran frequently. i found it quite useful for accessing nearby attractions. the communal microwave available for guest use was also beneficial, particularly for reheating food. i especially appreciated it .
The gym is quite small. This limits workout options.
