In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness rated below average — The rooms and cleanliness category scores 7/10, the lowest of all rating categories, suggesting some guests may find room upkeep inconsistent.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in only from 16:00 — Check-in begins at 16:00, so early arrivals will need to wait or store luggage.
  • Street-facing rooms may have some noise — Although many guests find it quiet, the hotel overlooks the street; light sleepers might want to request a higher floor or interior-facing room.
