Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 21:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals. Guests must plan their arrival accordingly or coordinate with the staff.
  • Check-out is very early — Check-out is between 05:00 and 11:00, which is earlier than many hotels. This might feel rushed for guests who want a leisurely morning.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • No on-site breakfast — While the apartments have kitchen facilities, there is no breakfast service. Guests note that nearby cafes may be closed on Sundays, so planning breakfast is wise.
  • Smoking is not permitted — The property is no-smoking throughout, which may be a drawback for smokers.
