Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms and cleanliness rated lower — While guests find rooms clean and comfortable, the property's own rating for rooms and cleanliness is relatively modest at 5 out of 10, suggesting expectations should be tempered.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which may be a limitation for travellers with animals.
- No smoking on site — Smoking is not permitted anywhere on the property, which could be an issue for smokers.
- Limited breakfast options for early departures — While one guest praised an early breakfast arrangement, this was a special accommodation, not a standard service — so early risers may not always get a full spread.
