Worth weighing

  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a restriction for those travelling with animals.

“The location is decent, very close to a maze of corridors and the town centre, couldn't be better. The room was brand-new, reasonably large, with a balcony, but the bed was smaller than a queen and the heaters were turned off! Early check-in and very helpful staff.”
