Four of us stayed here recently for 4 nights and we really couldn't have been happier with all aspects of our stay. The appartment was beautifully appointed with two en-suite bedrooms, a spacious lounge area, a well-equipped kitchen and spectacular views of the surrounding city and docklands area. There is also a washing machine and tumble drier to catch up... More
