Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small size may not suit everyone — The house is compact, so it's best for a couple or solo traveller; those needing more space might find it tight.
  • Paid Wi-Fi — Unlike many properties, Wi-Fi is not free—it's listed as an amenity with a cost.
  • No pets or smoking — The property does not allow pets and has a strict no-smoking policy, which may be a drawback for some travellers.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals may need to plan ahead.
