Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00. Arriving outside these hours may be a challenge.
  • Adults-only policy — The guesthouse does not accept children or pets, so it is not suitable for families travelling with younger guests.
  • Distance from the main pier — North Pier is a 25-minute walk away, so you'll need to plan for a stroll or use the nearby tram stop.
  • Limited in-room amenities — Rooms come with just the essentials — shower and heating — so don't expect extras like a minibar or air conditioning.
