Room 2 Oleander Hotel Walk to Cruise Terminal, Restaurants & The Strand

Very convenient location. Close to plenty of shopping, restaurants and the cruise ship pier. I walked to the pier for my cruise. Easy walking, no major highways, kind drivers.

Location. Communication. Cleanliness, Upkeep of facilities.

No access to a bathroom, until check in 4 p.m. (Would pay extra for early check-in). No ice machine.

Excellent shower, fluffy towels, refillable shampoo/shower gel containers, comfortable bed, nice couch and very quiet. A short walk to the museums which were the reasons we stayed for 2 nights, restaurants and bars. Nice outdoor seating area by the side entrance. Interesting jungle animal wallpaper on one wall and shabby chic painted concrete floor. TV, microwave and fridge worked very well. Very quiet air con.

We really wanted to like this more as the photos of the other rooms and exterior looked bright and lovely. The pre-arrival emails were very informative and we were notified that we would be in a different room as there was a problem with the allocated one. The oblong room we were given had a smallish window at the end overlooking the car park so we had a good view of our car and some nice foliage plants right outside the window. The coffee machine didn't work. Through messages it was suggested that we could get one from another room but we weren't sure that was a good idea to enter another room we weren't booked into. We said we were ok to use the microwave that evening to boil water (there was tea, coffee & small biscuit guest pack) and have a replacement one the next day which didn't arrive. We couldn't get the bedside light to switch off so we had to unplug them to turn them off. There was a leaking mould on a couple of the bedroom walls which we think may be a coastal salt air reaction to the breeze block cement (we live by the coast so recognise it from our breeze block garage/extension) - it can be easily wiped off and sprayed.

Like the color and decor. Location close to downtown for walking and dining.

Location very nice

The floor in room 2

100% responsive owner/management. Every detail is well designed for a casual boutique vibe. Simple, elegant redesign of property.

Better security measures on doors inside/out. More insulation between rooms.
