Orka Apartments

The pool was lovely. The apartment was easy to find. Lots of nice restaurants on the same street and the area felt very upmarket and quiet.

The room smelled musty and damp. I guess it’s a result of a bathroom with no windows and the shower had a dreadful leak so water pooled on the floor which won’t have helped. We had initially asked for help locating our specific apartment from the host of the Orka restaurant but she looked us up and down with such barely disguised disgust that we moved on and after some trial and error found it ourselves. We obviously chose not to eat there as a result but did eat at Peppers down the street which was lovely and welcoming. I didn’t like the fact that we had a ground floor room as the gate to the property and the main door were meant to be locked with a key code to enter but both were unlocked the whole time we were there so any stranger from the street has access to the building.

Great location on harbour front with communal pool.

There was no staff to communicate with during the stay.

Excellent location, very well equipped, clean, great pool with loungers for all.

It had a wonderful view of the harbour as we were based on the second floor, the pool looked inviting, the double bed was comfortable. Location was perfect, restaurants were adjacent, the main bus station n ferries were across the harbour along with bakeries, and other eateries. Approx 35 min walk into the Old Town or 5 mins on a bus.

It looked very tired and needed refreshing, it was ok but could have been a little cleaner. But value for money all the same.
