Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Not in the historic center — You'll need to rely on buses or a 25-minute walk to reach the main sights, which may not suit everyone.
- Adults-only and no pets — Families with children and pet owners cannot stay here, which is a deliberate restriction.
- Limited room type — Only a Large Double Room with two single beds is listed, so flexibility for different group sizes is limited.
