Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Comfort score lags behind other categories — While rooms and service rate well, the comfort category sits lower at 6.2, suggesting some guests may find beds or noise levels less than ideal.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Limited parking — No on-site parking is listed, which could be a challenge for those driving into the dense Old City area.
- Economy rooms lack windows — The most budget-friendly option is an interior room without a window, which may not appeal to guests wanting natural light.
- Check-in window ends late — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight may need to make special arrangements.
