Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness could be better — While many guests are satisfied, the category rating of 7 suggests some inconsistency in room upkeep or cleanliness.
  • Restaurant can be pricey — One guest noted the restaurant was good but a bit expensive for the quality.
  • Limited room types with air conditioning — Only some rooms (mobility access, twin) are listed with air conditioning; others may rely on climate control that might not be as effective.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
