In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Free parking on site — Parking is included, a real plus in a busy mountain town where spaces can be scarce.
  • Well-regarded rooms — Rooms score 8.8, reflecting guest satisfaction with comfort and cleanliness.
  • Pets allowed — You can bring your dog or cat along without hassle, as pets are explicitly permitted.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited room types — Only two room categories are offered – Quadruple and Triple – so larger groups or solo travellers have fewer options.
  • Shared facilities — The kitchen and laundry are communal, which may not suit guests wanting full privacy.
  • Check-out is early — Check-out is at 10:00, which can feel rushed for a leisurely morning.
  • No on-site restaurant — There is no dining facility in the property, so you'll rely on the shared kitchen or nearby eateries.
