Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Comfort and facilities could be better — The comfort and facilities ratings are slightly lower than other categories, suggesting the rooms or common areas may feel basic.
- No on-site parking — Parking is available but only as public parking nearby, which may be less convenient or cost extra.
- Street noise possible — Some rooms may face the street, and despite soundproofing, the busy transport area could bring noise.
- Limited room types — Only three room categories are available: double/twin, triple, and standard single. No suites or family rooms are listed.
