Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Private external bathroom in some rooms — The standard double and family room come with a private bathroom located outside the room, which may be less convenient for some travelers.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 21:00, and check-out between 08:00 and 10:00, which might not suit very early or late arrivals.
  • No on-site parking information — The property does not list any parking, though one guest mentions it's near public parking. Travelers driving in may need to arrange their own parking in the area.
  • Two-star, basic amenities — While rooms have air conditioning, TV, and kettles, you won't find extra facilities like a fitness center or spa, and the rating reflects a simple B&B experience.
