Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property with limited rooms — With only 6 rooms, availability may be limited and the intimate scale may not suit those seeking a large hotel's facilities.
  • No on-site breakfast for all guests — Some guests enjoyed breakfast at a nearby restaurant, but it's not a standard in-house offering for every stay.
  • No pets and non-smoking policy — Pets are not allowed and the property is strictly non-smoking, which may be a constraint for some travelers.
  • Airport shuttle is paid — The hotel offers an airport shuttle, but it comes at an additional cost — guests should budget for transfers.
