Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small rooms — Several guests describe the rooms as compact or neat but tight. The Single and Small Double rooms are best for solo travellers or short stays.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:30, which may be inconvenient if you're arriving later in the evening.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with a furry companion.
  • Breakfast not included in base price — While breakfast is highly praised, it's not noted as included in the room rate, so factor in extra cost if you want the full cooked experience.
