Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Weaker general facilities — While rooms and service earn near-perfect scores, the 'General' category is 9.6 and two unnamed categories rate 9.2 and 9.4—still good, but slightly lower than the headline scores.
  • Limited check-out window — Check-out is only from 07:00 to 10:00, which may feel early for guests wanting a slow morning.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Small property with just 9 rooms — With only nine rooms, availability can be limited, and shared spaces like the TV room may feel busy during peak periods.
