What works, what to weigh

Strengths

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Perceived value is modest — The Value rating sits at 6.9, the lowest of the scorecard, suggesting some guests felt the price didn't fully match what was offered.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 22:30, which may be inconvenient for those arriving on late flights or trains.
  • No pets and no parking — Pets are not allowed, and there is no on-site parking, so guests driving will need to find alternative arrangements.
  • Smoking restricted — Only non-smoking rooms are available, which might be a downside for smokers.
