Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 21:00, so late arrivals may need to plan ahead.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
  • Limited in-room amenities — Rooms feature a shower and heating, but there's no mention of air conditioning, which might be a consideration in warmer months.
