Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Mixed value rating — Value scores 7.9, the lowest category, suggesting some guests feel the price doesn't always match the experience.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to leave your furry friends at home.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 18:00, which might be tight if your flight arrives later in the day.
  • Only handicap parking noted — On-site parking appears limited to handicap spaces, which could be a challenge for regular drivers.
