–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Comfort rating is noticeably lower — The comfort category scores just 6.2, the lowest among all ratings, which suggests rooms may feel less plush or quiet than some guests expect.
- Restricted check-in hours — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 20:00, so arriving outside that window means you'll need to plan ahead or make special arrangements.
- Early check-out — Check-out is from 08:00 to 10:00, earlier than many hotels, which might feel rushed for guests who like a slow morning.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this property won't work — the policy explicitly prohibits them.
