Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Adult-only dorms — The dormitory rooms are marked as adult-only, which means families with children would only have the private double room or triple bunk room as options.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only possible between 15:00 and 22:00, which could be a constraint for travellers arriving later in the evening.
  • No pets allowed — The guesthouse does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
  • Shared bathroom facilities — The rooms list only a shower, with no mention of private toilets or bathrooms, meaning most stays rely on shared facilities.
