–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms size may be tight for some — One guest noted their room was suitable for a group and fit two small suitcases, but another mentioned a lack of airflow in their room, suggesting space and ventilation can be limited.
- Check-in ends at midnight — The reception is open 24 hours, but check-in is only officially available between 15:00 and 23:59, so very late arrivals won't be processed formally.
- No on-site parking mentioned — The hotel does not list parking among its amenities, so guests arriving by car may need to arrange parking elsewhere.
