"Good central location. Difficult to locate easily in a busy pedestrian precinct so Shuttle bus from airport essential for a new visitor to CT. Not an area you want to be on foot with expensive luggage and looking like a new boy on the block."

"Hotel is located in the center with 6-7 mins drive by taxi to the Waterfront. Quite a concern was a "camping site" on the opposite side of the road. Taxi can park on both sides of he entrance corner. Restaurant is ok, not ideal but ok. And actually hotel is quite crowded."
