Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 16:00, which may be tight for some arrival schedules.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so those traveling with animals will need to find alternative accommodation.
  • Limited room variety in some categories — The Deluxe Twin and Double rooms don't list balconies or city views, which some guests might expect from the photos. The higher categories add these features.
