Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
  • Small property with just 21 rooms — The limited number of rooms may mean less availability and a more intimate, but potentially busier, atmosphere.
  • Adults-only policy may not suit all — The hotel explicitly does not allow children, which could be a drawback for families.
