Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The property does not list parking, so guests arriving by car may need to find alternatives nearby.
  • Limited breakfast options for some — While the breakfast offers pastries and made-to-order coffee, it may not satisfy guests expecting a full hot buffet.
  • Street-facing rooms may have noise — Some rooms offer street views, which could bring ambient noise from the city despite soundproofing.
