Worth weighing
3 to weigh- General rating lags behind other categories — The lowest rating category is 'General' at 8.3, suggesting some guests find the overall experience less polished than the high marks for staff and rooms.
- Lower-tier rooms lack bathtubs — Only the Deluxe Double Room includes a bathtub; Classic and Superior rooms have showers only, which may disappoint guests who prefer a soak.
- Check-in window ends at 23:30 — The hotel requires check-in between 14:00 and 23:30, so very late arrivals may need to arrange alternative entry.
