Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • A bit tricky to find initially — Some guests mention that the entrance is not immediately obvious – a few said it became easier to locate with practice. The address sits on the second floor of a building in a quiet alley.
  • No on-site facilities beyond basics — There is no restaurant, gym, or pool – the property focuses on comfortable rooms and a shared kitchen. One review noted 'no facilities but clean and comfortable'.
  • Limited in-room amenities — Some rooms do not include a private fridge or coffee machine – guests need to rely on the shared kitchen for cold storage and hot drinks. One review mentioned a small fridge in the room, but it may not be standard.
  • Potential noise from nearby streets — While the property is off the main road, it is close to the old town and bus station – guests seeking absolute quiet might hear some urban ambience. However, the rooms are soundproofed.
