- No pets allowed — The hostel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
- Adults-only policy — While the hostel has a children's play area, it's adults-only – not suitable for families with kids.
- Limited on-site parking — There is no dedicated parking listed, so you may need to find street parking or use public transport.
