Worth weighing
3 to weigh- No pets allowed — If you're planning to travel with a furry companion, this isn't the place – the policy is clear that pets are not permitted on site.
- Check-in window may be tight — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 23:59. If you're arriving late at night, you might not make it in time – though the 24-hour reception can assist once you're there.
- Limited room types described — The available input lists a single Double Room category, which may mean less variety in room options compared to larger hotels. If you need specific bed configurations, confirm at the time of booking.
