–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dormitory-style only – no private rooms — The hotel offers shared male and female dorms with single beds. There's no option for a private room, which may not suit travellers seeking solitude.
- Check-in window ends at 23:30 — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:30. Late arrivals after midnight won't be able to check in, which could be an issue for red-eye flights or late-night plans.
- No pets allowed — The hotel has a clear no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements if traveling with an animal.
- Basic one-star amenities — As a one-star property, there's no swimming pool, gym, or restaurant. The amenities are functional – Wi-Fi, tea/coffee, washing machine – but not luxurious.
