In brief
What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00. If your travel plans run later, you'll need to arrange something else — but the property doesn't advertise late arrival options.
- Early checkout time — Checkout is between 07:00 and 10:00, which is tighter than many hotels, so don't plan a leisurely morning.
- No pets or parking listed — Pets aren't allowed, and there's no mention of parking on site, so budget for public transport or nearby garages if you're driving.
