Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Noise — The lively central area means street noise can be heard day and night, especially in rooms facing the street.
  • Dining limited — Dining scores only 5 out of 10, and the hotel only offers vending machines for snacks and drinks — no full restaurant.
  • No pets — Pets are not allowed on the property.
  • Compact rooms — Rooms are basic with limited space, typical of a budget hotel — not suited for those wanting extra comfort.
