–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Uphill walk from the Old Town — The hotel sits on a slope, so getting back from the Old Town or Baščaršija involves a climb that some guests found tiring after a day of sightseeing.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for travelers wanting to bring their animals.
- Value for money could be better — While the rooms are generally comfortable, the Value rating is the lowest among the scoring categories, suggesting some guests felt the price didn't fully align with the experience.
- Limited room count — With only 13 rooms, availability may be an issue during peak times, and the hotel may feel more constrained in terms of facilities and space.
