Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 20:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
- Some rooms have shared bathrooms — A few reviews mention using a shared bathroom, so not all rooms have en-suite facilities.
- No pets allowed — The B&B cannot accommodate pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
- Potential for noise or crowding — One guest stayed with a large group of 20 family members, so the property may feel busy at times.
