Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
  • No on-site parking — While parking is mentioned as available, details are vague, and the historic district can be challenging for cars.
  • No pets allowed — Guests traveling with pets will need to look elsewhere.
  • Some units lack air conditioning — The One-Bedroom and Two-Bedroom Deluxe apartments are not listed as air-conditioned, which could matter in summer.
  • Mixed reviews on value — While many guests find it great value, a few ratings suggest the price might not suit everyone.
