Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Compact property — With only 39 rooms, the hotel is small. Book early if you have specific dates in mind, as availability can be limited.
- Generic chain feel — Some guests may find the hotel lacks local character, typical of an express-brand property. The rooms are comfortable but not distinctive.
- Limited dining options — The on-site dining is limited to breakfast and a coffee shop; for other meals, guests need to explore nearby restaurants or use in-room amenities.
