Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast not universally praised — While some guests enjoyed the extensive breakfast, others found it merely 'satisfactory'. It's a mixed experience if you're particular about breakfast.
  • Location is functional, not atmospheric — Being right at the station is convenient but means you're not in a quiet, traditional neighborhood. Street views are common.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel enforces a strict no-pets policy, which may be limiting for travelers with animals.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:59, which might be restrictive for very late arrivals.
