Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Access via a back alley that some find off-putting — Several guests describe the alleyway as 'dodgy' or 'sketchy', though they add that the hotel itself is safe and worth it.
- Limited on-site facilities — Apart from the listed room amenities (Wi-Fi, TV, toiletries), there's no mention of a gym, pool, or restaurant, so guests may need to venture out for extras.
- No on-site parking or pets — The property does not allow pets, and parking is not listed, which could be a consideration for self-drivers or those travelling with animals.
