Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Breakfast is not included in the base rate — The property lists breakfast options as a paid extra, so you'll need to factor that into your budget.
- No pets allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this hotel won't work. The policy is explicit: pets are not allowed.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:00. If you arrive late, you may need to arrange alternative plans.
- Parking is available but not guaranteed — The hotel lists parking as an amenity, but there's no information on availability or cost. Given the central beach location, spaces may be limited.
