Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Mixed room quality — While some guests found rooms spacious and clean, room ratings are the lowest category (7.7), suggesting inconsistency across units.
  • Limited on-site facilities — No pool, gym, or breakfast service listed in the amenities — despite one review referencing them, the official data doesn't support those claims.
  • Check-in window ends early — Check-in is only available from 15:00 to 23:30, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
