Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted on the property, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
- Strict check-out time — Check-out is from 08:00 to 10:00, which is earlier than many hotels, so plan your final morning accordingly.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:00, so late arrivals after 11 PM may cause issues.
- Small room sizes — The 'Small Double Room' is available, and some guests may find standard rooms compact, especially for larger groups.
