The room was cleaned daily, beds well made but only bath towels were given and had to asked for hand towels daily, would be nice that hand towels were given daily. TV programs isn't that superb and the picture resolution was grainy and unclear. Would I want to come back to stay again...maybe, unless the rectifications were done.

The Bayview is a good hotel, well located with decent dining options and friendly staff. The rooms are big and have everything you would need inside them. The hotel is just a little dated however and needs a bit of TLC. Overall would happily stay here again.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel room had a great view of the bay. The bed was quite hard but the shower warmed up quickly and was easy to use. The walls were quite thin, we could hear the people's conversation next door to us. But the hotel room was nice and spacious which was good.
