Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The property does not list parking, so guests arriving by car will need to arrange parking nearby — typical for a historic center location.
  • Restricted check-in window — Check-in is only possible between 14:00 and 19:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals. Early check-out is also required by 10:00.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited amenities on site — There is no breakfast service, restaurant, or gym — the apartment is strictly self-catering, and guests will need to venture out for meals (though many restaurants are within a few minutes' walk).
