Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Check-in is limited to a 16:00–18:00 window — Guests must arrive within these hours, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
- Some rooms share toilets — The Single Room Shared Toilet option means you may not have a private bathroom, which could be a consideration for some travelers.
- No pets allowed in rooms, despite policy saying otherwise — Although the policies list pets as allowed, the amenities explicitly state 'No pets allowed', so it's best to confirm directly.
- Breakfast not explicitly mentioned — While some reviews mention 'plenty of goodies for breakfast', the input does not confirm a full breakfast service or its cost.
