Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Street noise can be an issue — Some guests noted noticeable noise from the streets, which may affect light sleepers despite the central convenience.
- Small hotel, limited facilities — With only 34 rooms, the hotel is intimate but lacks extensive on-site amenities like a full restaurant or fitness centre.
- General rating below other categories — The overall 'General' rating of 8.0 trails the higher scores for staff (8.9) and other categories, suggesting the overall experience may be slightly uneven.
