  • Check-in limited to 15:00–23:30 — If you arrive late at night, you may need to coordinate arrival within this window or contact the hotel in advance.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so plan accordingly if traveling with an animal.
  • No on-site parking — Parking is not provided, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking in the old town, which can be challenging.
