Worth weighing

  • Mixed value perception — The value score is lower, and some guests rated their stay lower overall, despite positive reviews.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Late arrivals after 23:59 may need to arrange alternate access; check-out is between 10:00 and 11:00.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which may limit travel plans for pet owners.
