Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities score lower than other categories — The facilities rating (6.1) is notably below the overall rating, suggesting the amenities are more basic than some might expect.
- Comfort rating is below average — With a comfort score of 7.5, some guests may find the rooms less luxurious than the price suggests.
- Parking is available but may be limited — Parking is offered (with valet), but the hotel is on a busy main street, and like many urban hotels, spaces can be tight.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which could be a drawback for travellers with animals.
