Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small property, no lift — This is a guesthouse in a converted townhouse — expect a more intimate scale and stairs rather than a large hotel with a lobby and elevator.
- No on-site parking — There is no dedicated parking at the property. If you arrive by car, plan for public parking nearby or use the car hire and shuttle services the hotel offers.
- Check-in window is specific — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:30. If you land later or arrive outside these hours, you'll need to arrange it directly with the hotel.
- No pets and non-smoking throughout — The property is strictly non-smoking and doesn't allow pets, which may limit some travellers.
