Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Very small property — With only 8 rooms, the hotel is intimate but may feel limited if you expect extensive facilities or a quiet, secluded stay.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, which may be inconvenient for late-night arrivals or early flights.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements if traveling with an animal.
  • Smoking not permitted — The entire property is non-smoking, which may be a drawback if you prefer to smoke indoors.
