Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small scale — With only six rooms, the hotel offers a personal feel but limited availability and no large-hotel facilities like a restaurant or gym.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 12:30 and 20:00, which might be inconvenient for late arrivals.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with pets cannot stay here, as the hotel enforces a strict no-pets policy.
  • Potential noise from central location — Being in the historic centre means street life and nearby restaurants, which could be lively at night, though guests note the atmosphere was quiet.
