Worth weighing

- Rooms and cleanliness rated lower — The Rooms and cleanliness category scored a 7, lower than other aspects, though reviews still mention cleanliness positively. This might indicate some inconsistency.
- Potential street noise — Though the hotel has soundproofed rooms, one guest noted the noise from the streets despite the room being quiet, so light sleepers might still be affected.
- Check-in windows are limited — The check-in window runs from 15:00 to 23:59, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals. Guests arriving after midnight would need to plan accordingly.
