Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Not right in the city centre — It's about a 25-minute walk to John's Lane Church and a bit further to the National Botanic Gardens, so you'll rely on walking or buses.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 23:59, so arrive within those hours or arrange otherwise.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, so plan accordingly if travelling with an animal.
  • Street noise potential — Located on the North Circular Road, which is a main artery, some rooms facing the street may pick up traffic noise, though guests generally found it quiet.
