Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Limited facilities for a hotel — The property is small, so there is no gym or extensive spa; the main leisure options are the plunge pool, jacuzzi, and sun terrace.
- Comfort ratings are lower than other aspects — While rooms are generally clean, Comfort is rated 7.4, suggesting some guests find the beds or soundproofing less than perfect.
- No dedicated parking mentioned — Parking is not listed among amenities or policies, so those arriving by car may need to find alternatives nearby.
- Check-in window is specific — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:00, so late arrivals outside these hours may need to arrange alternative plans.
- Some rooms face the street — Family and certain room types note a street view, which could mean some noise from the surrounding area.
