Worth weighing

  • Rooms and cleanliness could be more consistent — While many guests mention spotless rooms, the rating for rooms and cleanliness sits at 7/10, below the overall score. Some may find the rooms simple for the price.
  • Breakfast not universally loved — Despite positive comments, the dining rating is also 7/10, suggesting the breakfast spread may not impress everyone. Guests with specific dietary needs should check options.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
