Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Not in the historic centre — The guesthouse is a bus ride away from the main sights, though the network is reliable and easy to use.
- Narrow check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:00, which may be tight for very late arrivals.
- Early check-out time — Check-out is between 08:00 and 10:00, so no lie-ins on departure day.
