Worth weighing

4 to weigh

  • Rooms and cleanliness rated lower — The rating for rooms and cleanliness is 6/10, suggesting some guests find the rooms basic or lacking in polish, even if clean.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
