Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms and cleanliness score only 7/10 — Some rooms face an internal courtyard with limited natural light (e.g., Comfort Double Room Internal View), and the overall room rating trails other categories.
- No pets allowed — Guests traveling with animals are not accommodated, which may be a deal breaker for some.
- Restrictive check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 until 23:59, which could be inconvenient for late-night arrivals.
