Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Check-in only until 22:00 — The check-in window is 14:00 to 22:00, so late arrivals won't be accommodated unless arranged.
- Check-out ends at 10:00 — Guests must leave by 10:00, which may feel early for those wanting a lazy morning.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which limits options for travelers with animals.
- Some inconsistencies in service or value — Overall rating is 8.5 and value 8.6, but one review gave a 6.6 citing a great view but no major complaints; another rated 7.8 with a note on breakfast variety. This suggests the experience can vary slightly.
