Worth weighing

4 to weigh

  • Inconsistent dining experience — Breakfast is adequate but not outstanding, and the on-site restaurant may not impress. Dining rating is the lowest category.

  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, which may be a drawback for those travelling with animals.
