Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited on-site parking — No parking is listed, so guests arriving by car may need to find public parking in the area – a consideration in this dense waterfront district.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only available between 15:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight cannot check in until the next day.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travelers wanting to bring their animal companions.
  • Mixed review scores — With an overall rating of 8 out of 10, some guests have had less-than-perfect experiences – a few reviews are more measured in their praise.
