The room was clean and comfortable, in a great location with excellent views. The name “Marine Terrace Apartments” was a little misleading for the studio room we booked, as it was more like a compact hotel room rather than a self-contained apartment. We had expected facilities such as a kitchenette, small lounge, and dining area, which were not included. That said, the stay was still enjoyable overall, and the staff were friendly and helpful.
