Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited in-room dining — Dining options are basic – breakfast is delivered, but there's no on-site restaurant or bar beyond that.
- Fixed check-in window — Check-in is only between 08:30 and 13:00, which may require planning if you arrive later in the day.
- Small scale — With just six rooms, availability is very limited and the property may not suit those seeking full hotel services like a gym or spa.
- No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted, which could be a drawback for those traveling with animals.
