Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not all rooms have the same extras — While some reviews mention kitchenettes and foot massage machines, these aren't standard across all room types — check the specific room details before booking if these matter to you.
- Moderate overall rating — With a rating of 8.5 from 3531 reviews and varied scores in individual reviews (from 6 to 10), expectations should be set for a solid but not exceptional stay.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place — the hotel explicitly prohibits pets.
- Check-in window closes at 23:59 — Late arrivals after midnight won't be able to check in, which could be a problem for red-eye flights or delayed trains.
