Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms are small and basic — Expect compact quarters with essential amenities rather than space or frills.
- No on-site parking — You’ll need to use a nearby public garage – one guest found a reasonably priced 24-hour option on a parallel street.
- Breakfast is simple — Described as typical and small, though decent – don’t expect a lavish spread.
