Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Thin walls — At least one guest noted that noise from neighboring rooms can carry, so light sleepers may want earplugs.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:00, which could be tight for late arrivals.
  • No on-site parking — The property is in a ZTL (restricted traffic) zone, so driving in requires a special pass; guests suggest parking by the central station and walking about 10 minutes.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere, as the guest house doesn't accept pets.
