Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The property doesn't list parking, so if you're driving you'll need to find public parking nearby, which may be limited in this central area.
  • Small property, limited rooms — With only 12 rooms, availability can be tight, especially during peak travel periods, and there's less variety in room types.
  • Check-in window is restrictive — Check-in is only between noon and 6 PM, so if your train arrives later, you'll need to plan for luggage storage until you can access your room.
  • Potential AC quirks — One guest noted a faint cigarette smell and a clicking noise from the air conditioning, though it didn't detract from their overall positive experience.
