Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Limited room options — There is just one room type — a King Room — so availability is tight and it may not suit larger groups or those wanting more space.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 21:00, so if you arrive late, you may need to arrange alternative plans.
  • Service and general scores are moderate — Service is rated 7.9 and General 7.4, which are decent but not exceptional — some guests may find the experience slightly uneven.
