Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Facilities score lower than average — The facilities rating of 6.8 is the weakest category, suggesting the property is basic in terms of on-site amenities beyond the essentials.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a limitation for those travelling with animal companions.
  • Potential night noise — One reviewer noted noise at night, though they clarified it was not the owner's fault, possibly from an external source.
  • Limited room type variety — Only two room types are offered – a twin and a comfort double – which may suit couples or solo travellers more than families or groups.
