Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited review volume — With only 11 reviews total, the rating of 8.7 is based on a small sample, so it may not fully represent typical experiences.
  • Paid Wi-Fi — Unlike many guest houses that include Wi-Fi, here it comes at an extra cost, which may catch some travellers off guard.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a furry companion, this property isn't suitable.
  • Check-in window starts at 13:00 — Early arrivals won't be able to access the room until after 1 PM, which could be inconvenient for morning flights.
