Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited parking — The hotel does not list on-site parking, so guests arriving by car will need to arrange alternative options nearby.
- Compact rooms — Rooms are described as neat and functional rather than spacious, which may not suit those after a large, luxurious suite.

- Potential noise from nightlife — The hotel has a night club and entertainment on site, which could lead to some noise, especially in the evenings.
