Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Dining options are limited — With a rating of 7 in Dining, the breakfast is described as good rather than outstanding, and dinner is not a highlight for most guests.
- Rooms and cleanliness could be better — At 7 out of 10, this category trails the location and service, so some guests may find the rooms basic for the price.
- Check-in only from 14:00 — If you arrive earlier, you'll need to wait or make use of luggage storage rather than checking straight in.
- No pets allowed — Travellers with animals need to look elsewhere, as the hotel explicitly prohibits pets.
- Valet parking only — Guests driving in must use valet parking rather than self-park, which adds a step to arrival.
