The Aqua Pacific Hotel

The Aqua Pacific Hotel

8/10 Good
"The staff was incredibly friendly and even let us check out an hour later so we got to enjoy the hot tub in the morning. The largest mini fridge I’d ever seen in a hotel room as well! The shower was massive and the room was very clean. The bed was a tiny bit soft but nothing too uncomfortable. Overall, loved staying here!"
