Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Short, specific check-in window — Check-in is limited to 12:00–12:30, which may be tricky if your travel plans are fluid.
  • Early check-out — Check-out runs from 08:00 to 09:00, so you'll need to be up and out earlier than at many hotels.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this apartment isn't an option.
  • Limited review volume — With only 10 reviews recorded, the rating is based on a small sample — a broader track record is still building.
