Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
  • Check-in window may be tight — Check-in is only from 15:00 until 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight won't be accommodated.
  • Potential for noise — The central location near bars and restaurants could mean street noise, though this wasn't directly mentioned in reviews.
  • Inconsistent housekeeping — One review noted a dirty bathroom, even though most praised cleanliness. This suggests occasional lapses in cleaning standards.
