Summary: The beautiful view is what saved this hotel. The room is large enough but lacks functionality thus making it uncomfortable for more than one person. There is no place to open luggage. No closet. One small rack with 3 hangers only. The length between the hangers and the shelf below is not long enough to hang anything. No wall hooks for a coat. No chair, only a stool at the desk. Such an easy fix; add a few hangers or some hooks on the wall, a folding luggage rack and a chair and the room becomes functional. The location is close walk to tram and ferry, but the immediate surroundings was all industrial building/hardware type district with heavy traffic noise all night. And the front desk people try to hard sell tours which I didn't like, especially after a long flight. I think there are better options nearby.
