Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window may be tight — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:30, so late arrivals after 11:30 PM won't be able to check in.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited on-site parking — While parking is available, it may be limited given the central location; guests should confirm availability in advance.
  • General rating lower than category scores — The overall 'General' score of 8.1 is below the property's category highs, possibly reflecting minor inconsistencies in the overall experience.
