Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Basic rooms and amenities — Rooms come with just a shower and air conditioning, and the hotel doesn't list extras like a pool, gym, or minibar. Travellers seeking more than the essentials may find the offerings limited.
- Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 21:00. If you arrive late, you may need to coordinate with the 24-hour reception, but the hotel's official check-in hours are restricted.
- No parking on site — The hotel does not list parking as an amenity or policy, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking in the old city, which can be challenging.
- Value rating is lower than other categories — While the price is low, guest scores for value (6.9) are below those for rooms (7.4), service (7.5), and staff (8.0), suggesting that some guests feel the experience doesn't fully match expectations for the price.
