Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Mixed value rating — While overall rating is strong, the value category scores lower at 8.4, and one returning guest gave a notably low rating, suggesting occasional inconsistency.
- Small scale — With only eight rooms, availability can be limited, and the property may feel less anonymous than larger hotels.
- Shared bathroom in some rooms — The standard double room has a shared bathroom, which may not suit all travellers despite being well-maintained.
- No on-site parking? — Parking is listed, but one review mentions an 'off-site car park', so you may need to use a nearby lot.

All staff were friendly and arranged a taxi to the airport. Our room was clean and comfortable, the shared bathroom spotless, and breakfast – though not included – was worth the extra $5. Easy walk to the main square, cable car, and bus station, with good nearby restaurants that weren't touristy.”
