Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast can feel repetitive — While guests enjoy the food, one review notes the breakfasts are 'monotonous'. If staying multiple days, expect the same spread each morning.
  • Compact property — With only 40 rooms, the hotel is relatively small. That's a plus for atmosphere, but those wanting a large-scale resort experience should look elsewhere.
  • Comfort rating below other categories — Comfort scores 7.9, lower than the overall 8.8. While reviews praise the rooms, the slightly lower score hints at possible variations in bedding or quietness.
  • No parking or pets allowed — The hotel does not list parking, and pets are not permitted. If you're driving or travelling with an animal, you'll need to make alternative arrangements.
