Worth weighing
4 to weigh- More suited to business than leisure — One guest notes that while it's fine for a night, it feels more like a business hotel than a holiday destination.
- Value questioned by some — A guest found it clean and central but not worth the price, suggesting a discrepancy between cost and perceived value.
- Facilities rated lowest — Among the rating categories, Facilities sits at 7.8, the lowest score, suggesting the on-site amenities may not match the rest of the experience.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
