Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small property, limited rooms — With just eight rooms, the inn may lack the facilities of a larger hotel, and availability is often tight.
- Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 16:00 to 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
- No pets allowed — The inn does not accept pets, so guests with animals cannot stay here.
- Check-out is early — Guests must leave by 10:00, which may feel early for a leisurely morning.
