Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only between 12:00 and 12:30, which may be inconvenient if your arrival time varies.
- Potential advance payment at check-in — Some guests have been asked to pay the full room bill in advance at check-in rather than at checkout, which can be unexpected.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Mixed feelings on the on-site restaurant — While breakfast is praised, one guest found the Southern Aroma restaurant overrated and somewhat expensive for the quality.
