Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 20:00, which may be restrictive if you arrive later in the evening.
  • Early check-out — Check-out is at 10:00, which might feel early for a leisurely morning.
  • No pets allowed — The apartment does not accept pets, so you’ll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
  • Price reflects basic value — With a price from £3 (likely per night per person, but unclear), the rating for value is 8.4, suggesting it’s decent but not exceptional for the money.
