Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Price is high for the class — At £664 per night, this is a premium price for an apartment, which may be a stretch for some budgets.
  • Check-in window ends at 23:59 — Late arrivals beyond midnight are not accommodated, so plan your travel accordingly.
  • No pets — The property does not allow pets, which may disappoint those travelling with animals.
  • Minor external issues — One guest noted a walkway outside the windows made them hesitant to open them at night, and another mentioned a TV interference issue from a mast.
