Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Breakfast served off-site — Some guests note that breakfast is provided at a nearby coffee shop rather than in the B&B itself, which may be less convenient for those who prefer an in-house option.
- Check-out window is early and narrow — Check-out is only from 01:00 to 10:00, which may not suit guests expecting a later departure.
- Parking is limited to handicap spaces — While private parking is available, it appears to be designated for handicap parking, which may limit availability for other guests.
