In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small scale — With only six rooms, common spaces and availability are limited, and the hotel may feel intimate rather than anonymous.
  • Shared bathroom in some rooms — Several guest reviews mention shared bathrooms, so not every room has a private en-suite.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only possible between 15:00 and 21:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
