Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small rooms — Several guests note the rooms are compact, which may be fine for sleeping but not for spending time indoors.
- Possible cleanliness issues — A few reviews report cockroaches in the initial room assignment, though the hotel offered a refund and the second room was clean.
- Basic facilities — Facilities score is the lowest category (5.5), reflecting the no-frills nature – no on-site dining, limited amenities in some rooms.
- Strict check-out time — Check-out is at 10:00, which may be early for some travellers used to later departures.
