Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited room options — The property appears to offer only a one-bedroom apartment with a double bed, which may not suit larger groups or those needing twin beds.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place – the policy explicitly states no pets.
  • Check-in only from 15:00 — With a check-in window of 15:00–23:59, you'll need to plan around your arrival time. Early arrivals won't be able to drop bags straight into the room.
  • No on-site parking listed — The property doesn't mention parking, so if you're driving, you'll need to sort out street parking or a nearby garage yourself.
