Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Low overall rating from past guests — With a 7.8/10 from over 1,000 reviews, it sits below the area average of 8.4 – so expectations should be modest.
- Shared bathroom in the standard double room — The listed double room type has a shared bathroom, which may not suit all travellers.
- No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 23:30 – arriving very late might be a challenge.
