Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking, so driving guests will need to find public parking nearby or use transit.
  • No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted on the property, which may be a limitation for those travelling with animals.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight cannot be accommodated at the front desk.
  • Some rooms have twin beds for triple occupancy — The Deluxe Triple Room provides two single beds, which may not suit groups expecting a double bed.
