Worth weighing

6 to weigh
  • Reviews note a rough surrounding area — While the location is central and near the station, a couple of guests pointed out that the immediate neighborhood feels less safe or appealing.
  • Mixed room comfort — Although some rooms are praised for space, others may be basic with shared bathrooms – the lowest rating category is Value at 6.1, suggesting inconsistent experiences.
  • Dining scores below average — Despite positive breakfast reviews, the Dining category sits at 6.2, indicating that not all food experiences hit the mark.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only available from 14:30 to 18:00 – if you arrive later, you may need to arrange alternative access.
  • No pets allowed — The pension does not accept pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited on-site parking — No parking is listed, so guests arriving by car may have to find public parking nearby at extra cost.
