Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Mixed guest experience — While many praise the staff, one review describes small rooms, poor service, and a negative overall impression, so expectations may vary.
  • Low facilities rating — The facilities score only 5/10, suggesting that some on-site amenities may be dated or not fully up to par.
  • No pets allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this hotel isn't an option.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in starts at 14:00 and ends at 23:59, so late arrivals may need to make alternative arrangements.

“Nothing pleased me. The hotel is awful, the rooms are very small, and the service is poor—staff seem annoyed and unhelpful. I won't return; it didn't meet any of my expectations, and I feel it was a waste of money.”
