Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in is limited to 16:00–22:00 — Plan your arrival to fit the narrow window; late check-in isn't described as flexible.
  • Check-out is early (07:00–11:00) — A relatively early departure time, which may not suit those wanting a lie-in.
  • Service and staff scores are the weakest points — The overall rating (8.2) is solid, but Service (7.9) and Staff (8.8) trail slightly behind Rooms (8.1) and Value (8.1).
  • Limited English among staff — One guest noted that staff were friendly but had limited English, which might be a hurdle for some.
