Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Comfort rating lags behind — At 7.5, the comfort category is the weakest area, suggesting some guests may find the bedding or room conditions less than ideal.
- No pets allowed — Travelers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the hotel enforces a strict no-pets policy.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only available from 15:00 to 23:00, so late arrivals after 11 PM cannot be accommodated.
- Street-facing rooms possible — Guests have noted that some double rooms face the street, which could mean more ambient noise.
