Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small-scale property — As a boutique hostel, it has limited rooms and shared amenities like a communal kitchen. This means less privacy and potential noise from other guests.
  • Check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:59. If you arrive earlier or later, you must arrange accordingly — no 24-hour front desk is listed.
  • No pets — Pets are not allowed on site. If you're travelling with an animal, this property won't work.
  • Street parking reliance — Free parking is offered, but it's off-site. You may need to find a spot on nearby streets, which can be competitive in a city neighbourhood.
