Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited facilities — Facilities score only 5.6, so don’t expect a gym, pool, or on-site restaurant—this is a simple B&B.
- Low comfort score — Comfort is rated 4.9, which may reflect smaller rooms or less soundproofing than typical hotels.
- Short check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 18:00, so late arrivals may need to coordinate in advance.
- No pets allowed — Travellers with pets will need to look elsewhere—the policy is strict no pets.
