Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Inconsistent heating — Some guests reported that heating was not working during their stay, requiring extra layers to stay warm. This was a particular issue in colder months.
  • Potential noise disturbance — One guest described noise from upstairs neighbours as intrusive, affecting sleep quality. With only 8 rooms, the property can be susceptible to noise transfer.
  • Dated decor — Guests noted that the decor feels dated, which may not appeal to those seeking a more modern aesthetic, though the price was considered reasonable in context.
  • Worn mattresses in some rooms — At least one guest found the mattress uncomfortable and worn out, suggesting variability in room quality.
  • Limited staff presence — A guest mentioned not seeing staff often, which could mean less on-site support for those who prefer constant assistance.

“I had a great stay — the location is perfect for exploring, everything within walking distance, and buses, trams, and trains were easy to reach. Good breakfast spots nearby, especially a café half a block away. My room was clean and a decent size, and while I didn't see staff often, they were friendly and helpful when I needed assistance during a stressful moment.”
