Stargazer Hotel

Stargazer Hotel

8/10 Good
"The staff was very helpful during check-in. The bed and pillows for me were very comfortable. I do not like the big fluffy pillows. Primarily booked for my granddaughter for the indoor pool and jacuzzi. It was good. Could do with a little updating. The hotel served it purpose and we had a great time at the Aquarium."
