I could not find any fault with our stay. As it's a boutique hotel, there isn't any facility and restaurant; that could be the only minus.

Cozy Hotel

Although not near the cruise port, it was great for walking and seeing the whole city. Breakfast is served in your room but hotel has bought the property next door for a breakfast area and additional rooms
