Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness score lower — While many guests are satisfied, the 'Rooms and cleanliness' category is rated 6 out of 10, suggesting some inconsistency.
  • Dining options limited — The on-site dining score is low (5/10), and there is no restaurant or breakfast service listed.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00, which may not suit late arrivals or those with tight schedules.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
