Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in starts at 16:00 — Late afternoon check-in may not suit early arrivals, though some guests report early check-in was accommodated.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travelling with animals is not an option here.
  • Limited dining on site — While there is a restaurant, many guests prefer the nearby restaurants in the opposite direction, suggesting off-site options are more varied.
  • Not the highest-rated for value — Value scores slightly lower than other categories, indicating some guests may find the price a bit high for the level of service.
