Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No parking on site — The property does not list parking among its amenities, so guests arriving by car will need to find street parking or a nearby car park.
- Small property, limited rooms — With only seven rooms, availability is limited, and the guesthouse may lack the facilities of larger hotels, such as an on-site restaurant or gym.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00, which may be inconvenient for guests arriving later in the evening.
- No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
