–
Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Adults-only policy means no children. — The property only accepts guests aged 18 and over, which suits some travellers but rules out families.
- Check-in window is fairly narrow. — Guests must check in between 15:00 and 23:59, with no option for late arrivals after midnight.
- No pets allowed. — Travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere – the property is strictly pet-free.
- It's a bed and breakfast, not a full-service hotel. — Breakfast is self-service style (toast, jam, juice per reviews), and there's no on-site restaurant – you're expected to make use of the shared kitchen.
- Street views from some rooms. — The Deluxe Queen Room has a street view, which may be noisier at times – though no specific noise complaints appear in reviews.
