“The Oleander Hotel's Room Number 1 strikes me as a particularly charming spot, with its seamless self-check-in and thoughtful touches like ready-to-heat honey buns, and it is close to restaurants and bars. I can see its appeal for pre-cruise stays, offering clean and functional accommodations. Despite reports of thin walls and a problematic cancellation policy incident, the room's cleanliness and convenient location still make it noteworthy in my view.”
