My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, though slightly small, was perfect for a couple for a night, but the noise from the nearby elevator was constant. The view over the harbor was magnificent, but finding cigarette buds in a glass of water on the window sill was off-putting.

7.0/10

The hotel was tiny but spotless and charming, with an apple on a tiny pedestal shelf on the wall with a plaque that said “An Apple a Day Will Keep the Doctor Away”. The rooms were still hot, old, and not equipped with air conditioning, making it very warm and the noise from the nearby railway disrupted sleep during late nights. The service was excellent, very accommodating and friendly. The location was small but had almost everything one could need and was close to the main transportation route. The dining experience was great with really good quality food but a bit on the pricey side. Overall, the hotel provided a quaint atmosphere with some drawbacks regarding room amenities and noise.

The hotel might not offer the best room views, but the ground floor restaurant compensates with a great harbor view. Despite the small rooms not being worth the money, the overall experience has its advantages.
