In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking among its facilities, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby.
- Check-in window is fairly narrow — Check-in is only available between 10:00 and 23:30, which may be inconvenient for guests arriving on late-night flights or buses.
- Not all rooms have fireplaces — Only the Superior and Deluxe Apartments include a fireplace; the standard Apartment does not, which may matter for colder evenings.
- Mixed reviews on overall experience — While most reviews are positive, a few guests rated their stay lower, mentioning the small size of the hotel and some aspects not meeting expectations.
