Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Limited room types — Only dormitory beds are available — no private rooms — so travellers seeking solitude may find it lacking.
  • Check-in window is strict — Reception is only open from 14:00 to 23:30, so late arrivals after midnight won't be able to check in until the next day.
  • No on-site parking — The hotel doesn't advertise parking, so those arriving by car may need to find public parking nearby.
