Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, which may be inconvenient for travellers with animals.
  • Limited room types — Only one room category is listed—a double with private bathroom—so larger groups may need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in window restricts arrival times — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 22:00, which could be tight for evening flights or late trains.
  • Check-out at 10 AM — Relatively early check-out may pressure morning plans, despite express options.
