Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Facilities are basic — The hotel scores lower in facilities (7.7) and comfort (7.8), suggesting the amenities are functional but not luxurious.
- No pets allowed — Those travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere, as the hotel enforces a strict no-pets policy.
- No on-site dining beyond breakfast — While the breakfast receives positive comments, the hotel only offers vending machines and a TV room, so you'll need to head out for other meals.
