Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
- No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Price reflects the premium class — Rates from $592 per night place it at the luxury end, and the value category scores slightly lower than comfort and service.
