In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Third-floor access may be an issue — The B&B is on the third floor; while a lift is available, guests with mobility concerns should check in advance, and there's no mention of a ramp.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 12:00 and 16:00, which may not suit travellers whose arrival times fall outside these hours.
  • No on-site parking — Parking is not offered at the property, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
  • Breakfast is not in-house — The served breakfast takes place at a neighbouring café, not at the B&B itself, which might be less convenient in poor weather.
