Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site restaurant — The property has no restaurant, so you'll need to rely on the kitchen in your suite or nearby eateries.
  • Limited room count — With only 12 rooms, the property is small — personal service, but potentially less anonymity and fewer on-site facilities.
  • Check-in starts at 15:00 — Early arrivals can't access their room until mid-afternoon, so plan your travel accordingly.
  • Pets not allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this property won't accommodate you.

“Excellent facilities and outstanding staff — competent, friendly, helpful, and well trained. We stayed 8 days and preferred it to a hotel; the apartments are very well equipped, clean, modern, and private. Probably our best hotel experience — we felt at home. What makes the difference is the staff's desire to accommodate your needs; they deserve an A+.”
