Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Small property, limited rooms — With only six rooms, the guest house may suit those seeking an intimate stay rather than full hotel facilities.
- No pets allowed — The property policy states pets are not allowed, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
- Check-in window ends at 21:00 — Check-in is only available between 12:00 and 21:00, so late arrivals need to coordinate with the owner.
