Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Small scale — With just 12 rooms and a 2-star classification, it's not a full-service hotel – expect a pension experience rather than extensive facilities.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 21:00, which may be inconvenient if you arrive late. Staff are praised for their help, but the window is fixed.
- No on-site restaurant — The property offers a leisure/TV room and kitchen amenities in some rooms, but there's no mention of a dining venue on site – you're relying on the surrounding bars and restaurants.
