Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is tight — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 20:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
  • Early check-out — Check-out is from 07:00 to 10:00, earlier than many hotels.
  • Room size varies — Some rooms have private external bathrooms, and the Family Room has only a single bed, so space may be limited.
  • No air conditioning in all areas — While rooms list air conditioning, some common areas may not be cooled—worth confirming for summer stays.
