–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Facilities trail the rest of the experience. — Guest scores for facilities sit at 7.5, the lowest of the property's rating categories. The property is described in reviews as a small B&B, not a full-service hotel.
- Check-in window is short. — Standard check-in is 14:00 to 19:00 and check-out is at 10:00. Late arrivals have worked well in some reviews, but only after the self-check-in process was arranged.
- No pets, and no guest parking listed. — Pets are not allowed, and parking is not featured among the amenities, so drivers need to arrange where to leave a car. A paid airport shuttle is available instead.
