Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Facilities score lower than other categories — While most categories rate above 9, Facilities sits at 8.4, suggesting some guests found the overall amenities less impressive than the service and rooms.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in window is limited in the evening — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight cannot be accommodated.
  • Limited landmark information — While the hotel is near the beachfront, specific nearby attractions are not listed, so guests should plan excursions independently.
