Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small property scale — As a 3-star hotel, the public areas and room sizes are modest compared to larger properties. Guests looking for extensive facilities may find them limited.
- Potential noise from central location — Being in the heart of the old city means street noise may reach some rooms, especially those facing the main roads. Lighter sleepers may want to request a quieter room.
- Inconsistent shower quality — At least one guest noted minor issues with the shower in their room, suggesting maintenance may vary by room type.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
