Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Breakfast is off-site — Breakfast is served at a nearby café, not in the B&B itself—a point to know if you prefer an in-house morning meal.
- No pets and limited on-site amenities — Pets are not allowed, and there's no on-site parking (only off-site option), which may matter if you're driving or traveling with an animal.
- Street-facing rooms can be lively — Some rooms have windows opening onto the street, which could bring noise from the old town's lively streets.
- Check-in window is specific — Check-in is limited to 12:00–22:30, which may not suit late arrivals without prior arrangement.
