Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 14:30 to 22:30, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Value rating is the lowest category — While overall ratings are good, value scores 7.9, the lowest among categories, suggesting some guests feel the price could be better.
- Mixed feedback on some room details — A couple of reviews mention minor issues like an unusual bathroom layout and the lack of card acceptance, which could be a consideration.
