In brief
What works, what to weigh
+

–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, you'll need to look elsewhere, as the hotel clearly states that pets are not permitted.
- Check-in window is limited to late afternoon — Check-in runs from 14:30 to 23:00, which may be restrictive if you arrive very early or late in the night—though some guests note the team is accommodating.
- Basic rooms without frills — Some guests describe the rooms as 'basic but perfect'—comfortable and clean, but not luxurious. If you're after high-end design, this may feel modest.
