Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking as an amenity, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby.
- Check-in window is long but not 24/7 — Check-in runs from 11:00 to 23:59, so arrivals after midnight won't be able to check in directly.
- Some rooms may be in an annex — At least one guest was moved to an apartment off-site, which might mean not all stays are in the main building.
- Price for the class — Rates start at £143 per night, which is higher than typical hostels; some guests may find it less budget-friendly.
