Other Things to Note

EARLY CHECK-INS: Early check-ins are welcome (particularly suited for early landing trans-Atlantic flights). For those making use of this please bear in mind that my previous nights guests do not normally check-out until around 11am. The early check-in allows you drop your luggage, get some hints and tips and to then head out to undertake some early sightseeing.

LATE CHECK-OUTS: Late Check-outs are never a problem. If a new guest arriving on the day you leave then you are welcome to leave your luggage in the front room, take the keys with you, and return at time that is suitable for you to make your onward journey.

PROFILE PIC: As an added security measure I also do not take bookings from guests who have no profile pic, or whose pic is of something that is obviously not them.
