No Boat Harbour just Asphalt Carpark +Rubbish Skip
The bathroom was the smallest I have seen EVER but the room was basic, quite spacious, clean well heated and with a comfortable bed, so by all accounts should have been a comfortable stay....but instead of the Boat Harbour view we were led to believe in advertising we had an asphalt car park and rubbish skips outside our window. The Hotel is nothing more than a residential style, old tower about a bloc away from the harbour. The penthouse suite perhaps?offers a view of the harbour but all we had was a view of an asphalt car park with rubbish skips outside our window. It was disappointing and when I complained I was told that all the rooms have identical furnishings but the type of room ie Ocean View/Park view differentiate the accommodation rate. That makes sense and I accepted this explanation but it didn't say that Standard room has a car park and Rubbish skips outside and the promotional photos do not indicate this either. In most Hotels, rooms are differentiated by size of room, type of bed and facilities offered. But Boat Harbour Motel is nothing more that plain lies or deceptive marketing. Hotels.com were very supportive, but the hotel immovable on its stance. It is a pity because the stay would have been comfortable had the false expectations not been created. Transparency is a good policy at all times.

Great view! However, it does go down hill from there quite rapidly. The lack of room sound proofing to drown out pissed customers returning to their room at 2.30 am and continuing to carry on. To the staff telling you they dont provide any crockery as result of COVID 19 even though their in house welcoming instructions say they do. Moreover, the venue is tired and using artificial grass does not hide the fact.
