Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-out is early — Guests must vacate by 10:00, which may feel rushed for those on a leisurely morning schedule.
  • Check-in window is limited — Arrivals are only accepted between 15:00 and 23:30, which could be inconvenient for late-night or early flights.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with pets will need to find alternative accommodations, as the property is pet-free.
  • Some rooms may lack natural light — At least one guest found their bedroom 'light'—possibly meaning too bright or too dim—though this remained a minor note.
