Had an amazing stay on Iris in walking distance to some of the best parts of the city. The accommodations were terrific all around. Views of the water from the cabin when you wake up is always a great experience. Special thanks to everyone working there while I visited. You all kept the atmosphere enjoyable and treated me almost like I was family. If I come through again, I’m hoping space will be available.
Remember, it’s a ship cabin so it’s not huge. Super clean, perfectly sized, and with a great view.
Looking off the bow into the city.

Die beiden Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war gut und die Aussicht ist Mega. Die Lüftung war leider zu laut und die Kabine war nicht so warm. Ansonsten war alles top. Danke für die Erfahrung und den Aufenthalt.
