Strengths
4 reasons to book- Staff that guests remember — Multiple reviews single out the general manager and the wider team for being attentive, friendly, and quick to help.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Price is on the higher side — The Value rating sits below the hotel's other scores, and one guest noted paying USD 103 for a room with a bar.
- A couple of mixed reviews — Ratings range from 5 to 10, with two guests scoring below 7 – one gave 6 and one 5 – though their written comments were still positive.
- No pets allowed — If you travel with an animal, this property won't work – the policy is strictly no pets.
- Check-out starts early — Check-out begins at 06:00 and ends at 10:00, which may feel tight if you like a slow morning.
