Overall it was good.

Liked:The shuttle to V&A waterfront. The porters were friendly and the food was good
Disliked:Its not really kid friendly. No activities, especially during a weekend like "two oceans". Also the person who was cleaning my room did not check behind the curtains. There were old forks and knives probably from a prior visit.
