In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Compact property with limited rooms — With only 8 rooms, the guest house is small and may lack the facilities of larger hotels, though it offers a more intimate stay.
  • Double bed may feel small for two — At least one guest noted that the double bed in the quadruple room was a bit snug for two people, though still comfortable.
  • No pets and no parking — Pets are not allowed, and no parking is listed, so guests arriving by car will need to rely on public parking in the central area.
