Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited storage and Wi-Fi issues — Some guests found the rooms short on storage space and experienced unreliable Wi-Fi, which could be a drawback for longer stays or those who rely on a steady connection.
  • Nightlife area can be noisy — cat7 rating is 6.9, the lowest category, suggesting the area may be affected by nightlife noise—a contrast to the otherwise quiet residential feel.
  • No pets allowed — The guest house does not accept pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Fixed check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 21:00, and check-out is early (08:00–10:00), which may not suit flights that arrive late or depart in the afternoon.
