Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only from 13:00 to 17:00, which can be inconvenient if your arrival falls outside those hours.
  • No pets allowed — The guest house does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements for furry companions.
  • No on-site parking — There is no parking listed for the property, so guests arriving by car will need to rely on public parking nearby, which may come at an extra cost.
  • Lower rating in one category — One of the rating categories sits at 6.7, notably below the others, suggesting room for improvement in that specific aspect of the stay.
  • Room type limited — Only a double room with a king-size bed is listed, so if you need twin beds or suites, this may not be the right fit.
