Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place — the policy is strictly no pets on site.
  • Limited dining options on site — The hotel's Dining score sits below the property's other ratings, and while breakfast is praised, the range of meals might feel thin for some.
  • Nighttime street lighting — One guest noted the street outside can feel a bit dark at night, though they added they never felt unsafe.
  • Value rating slightly lower — The Value score is the weakest of the tracked categories, which suggests the price-to-experience ratio may not feel as strong as other aspects of the stay.
