Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Value for money is a common complaint — Guests feel the price doesn't always match what's offered, with the Value category scoring lowest at 6.8.
- Some rooms are dated or noisy — A few guests mention older furnishings or street noise, which can affect sleep quality.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you're travelling with an animal.
