Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00, which could be restrictive for late arrivals unless you arrange otherwise.
  • Small B&B scale — With only two room types listed, it's a compact property, so availability may be limited during peak times.
  • Some rooms may lack a balcony — While one review mentions a balcony, not all rooms appear to have one, so it's worth requesting if you want outdoor space.
