Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Compact rooms — Several reviews describe rooms as small, though clean and well-equipped. If you need space, this might feel tight.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 13:30 to 14:00, which could be restrictive if your arrival time doesn’t align.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, so you’ll need to make other arrangements for your animal.
  • No on-site parking — There is no parking listed, so you’ll need to rely on public transport or find nearby parking if driving.
  • Breakfast is minimal — One review notes that breakfast consists of coffee and tea – not a full spread. Manage expectations if breakfast matters.
