Negative Reviews
negative:
Noisy Neighbours
Though most guests didn't have a complaint, some thought they could hear their neighbours quite well. If you're a light sleeper, you may want to bring a pair of earplugs as a precaution.
negative:
Climbing Stairs
Some guests were concerned about the lack of a lift on the property, as all rooms require stairs. If you have a lot of luggage or trouble with stairs, you may want to keep this in mind, and request a lower-floor room.
negative:
Low Clearance
If you're tall, you may want to watch your head. A few guests noticed that the ceiling beams in some rooms are quite low, the attic room especially.
