Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only from 13:00 to 22:00, so late arrivals past 10 PM may need to arrange alternative plans.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travelers with animals.
  • No on-site restaurant or bar — Beyond breakfast (which is reviewed well), there is no mention of lunch or dinner service, so guests will need to eat out.
  • Some rooms may face city noise — Certain room types offer a city view, and given the downtown location, street sounds could be present.
