–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Basic comfort levels — The lowest rating category is Comfort at 2.5, pointing to a generally basic level of in-room comfort — expected for the budget price point.
- Limited facilities — Facilities score 5.5, suggesting a no-frills setup. There's no mention of air conditioning, a lift, or on-site breakfast options beyond the dining room conversion.
- Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 21:00, so late arrivals may need to arrange ahead. Check-out is at 10:00, which is earlier than many hotels.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog, this isn't the place — the hotel explicitly prohibits pets.
