Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Breakfast can disappoint — While one guest enjoyed a wide variety at breakfast, another described the buffet as subpar, comparing it to a school canteen. Expectations may vary.
- Value questioned by some — A couple of reviewers felt the hotel was overpriced for what it offers, especially when compared to 4-star options in other markets.
- Small property, limited rooms — With only 14 rooms, the hotel is intimate but may feel limited for those expecting a large resort. Availability could be tight.
- No pets and no smoking — The hotel does not allow pets and enforces a no-smoking policy on site, which may be restrictive for some travellers.
