Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Mixed feedback on room comfort — While many guests praise the beds, the Comfort rating sits at 7.5, below the overall score. A few comments point to variability in room temperature or layout for some room types.

  • Facilities rating below average — The Facilities category scores 7.4, the lowest among the ratings, suggesting the on-site amenities may feel dated or limited relative to other 4-star properties.
