Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:00, so arrival after 11 pm would not be possible.
  • No pets allowed — If you’re travelling with an animal, this isn’t the place—the property is strictly no-pets.
  • 1-star property with compact rooms — As a one-star inn, the accommodation is basic rather than luxurious, and room sizes may be smaller than at higher-rated hotels.
