Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property – just 8 rooms — With so few rooms, availability can be limited, and the guesthouse may not suit those looking for a full-service hotel experience.
  • Strict check-in window and adults-only policy — Check-in is only possible between 13:00 and 18:00, which may be inconvenient for some travellers. The property also does not allow children or pets.
  • Shared bathroom in some rooms — While reviews praise the cleanliness, not all rooms have private facilities – some share a bathroom with other guests.
  • Street-facing rooms can be noisy — At least one review notes the room faced the street, which could bring some noise depending on the time.
