In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — If you’re travelling with a pet, this isn’t the place — the policy is strictly no pets.
  • Limited public-area Wi-Fi — Wi-Fi is only available in public areas, not necessarily in all rooms, which could be a drawback if you need reliable in-room internet.
  • Basic interior rooms — Some economy rooms have no view, which might feel enclosed if you prefer natural light or a outlook.
  • Small property scale — With only 22 rooms, the guesthouse is intimate, but this can mean less on-site facilities and potential noise between rooms.

“The shower gel was a nice touch, and everything felt spotless. The staff pointed me to great local spots, and I even woke up to the smell of fresh bread drifting up from below.”
