Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Reception hours are limited — Check-in runs only from 15:00 to 21:00, so late arrivals may need to plan ahead.
  • Early check-out window — Check-out is between 08:00 and 10:00, which may feel rushed for leisurely mornings.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so it's not suitable for travellers with animals.

  • Shared kitchen in some rooms — At least one review notes a shared kitchen, implying not all rooms have private cooking facilities.
