Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities score is the weakest point — The Facilities rating of 7.3 is the lowest category, suggesting some areas may feel dated or limited.
- Check-in ends at 21:00 — If you arrive late, you may have to arrange an alternative—check-in closes at 21:00.
- Some rooms are compact — The Budget Room offers a single king bed and likely minimal extras, while the Family Room includes a balcony but no mention of soundproofing.
- Street views in some rooms — Certain rooms face the street, which could bring noise despite soundproofing being listed as a general amenity.
