Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Area feels sketchy — One guest warns that the neighborhood can feel unsafe, advising caution when exploring nearby. This aligns with the location’s mixed reputation.
- Comfort rating is low — Guests rated comfort at 5.8, the lowest category. Some reviews hint at worn beds and old mattresses.
- No on-site dining — There’s no restaurant on the property. A guest notes the hotel doesn’t offer satisfying food and suggests eating out instead. The common kitchen is available for self-catering.
- Little to do on site — With just 10 rooms and no notable facilities beyond Wi-Fi, parking, and a common kitchen, it’s a basic stay rather than a destination in itself.
