Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Some rooms show signs of wear — While rooms are generally rated well (8.9), a few guests noted that the furnishings could feel a little dated. That's a minor caveat, not a recurring complaint.
- Check-in only from 14:00 — If you arrive early, you'll need to wait or store luggage – reception is 24-hour but rooms aren't ready until 2 pm.
- Paid airport shuttle — The hotel offers an airport shuttle, but it's not complimentary. Factor that into your budget if you plan to use it.
- No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements for furry companions.
