Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Shared bathrooms in some rooms — A few reviews note that bathrooms are shared in certain rooms, which may not suit everyone.
  • Adults-only and no pets — The guest house only accepts adults, and pets are not allowed, which could be a limitation for some travelers.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 20:00, so arriving outside those hours may require planning.
  • Off the main tourist strip — The quiet neighborhood is a plus for many, but it's a 10-15 minute walk from the lake and not directly on the main promenade.
