Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Low overall guest rating — The property holds a 6.2 rating from 183 reviews, below the area average of 8. While several guests praised the location and staff, others found the basics lacking.
  • Shared facilities in some rooms — Several room types are in shared apartments, meaning you might share a kitchen and bathroom with others. Privacy depends on whether other rooms are occupied.
  • Beds can be noisy — At least one guest noted that the bed made a lot of noise, which could disturb light sleepers.
  • Simple, basic amenities — Amenities are limited to free Wi-Fi in public areas, a dressing area, and an alarm clock. No air conditioning, minibar, or in-room coffee maker.
  • Check-in only between 16:00 and 23:59 — If you arrive outside these hours, you'll need to plan ahead—there's no 24-hour reception.

6.2Verified guest

“We had a three-bedroom apartment and got a room for $64 tax included. Facilities were shared, but we were lucky the other two rooms were locked and empty, so we basically had a private apartment. The bathroom is basic, the kitchen was fine, and the bed was good, though it squeaked a lot, if you know what I mean.”
