Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Narrow check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00, so late arrivals need to plan ahead. One reviewer also notes check-in wasn't always in person.
- Some rooms are in a separate building — The Deluxe Double or Twin Room and Junior Suite are marked as being in a separate building, so not all stays are in the main property.
- No pets allowed — The property doesn't accept pets, so anyone travelling with an animal will need to look elsewhere.
