Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dining scores lower than other areas — The on-site restaurant and breakfast receive mixed feedback, with the dining category rated 6 out of 10 — the lowest of all categories — so you may want to explore nearby eateries.
- Rooms and cleanliness have room for improvement — While many guests praise the rooms, this category scores 7, suggesting occasional inconsistencies in upkeep or comfort that aren't captured in individual reviews.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this hotel won't work — the policy clearly states that animals are not permitted on the property.
- Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is from 14:00 until 23:59, so if your flight lands late and you arrive after midnight, you'll need to plan accordingly.
