Worth weighing

  • Rooms and cleanliness could improve — The 'Rooms and cleanliness' category scores 7, the lowest of the four rated aspects, suggesting some inconsistency in upkeep.
  • Parking may be on the road — One review notes that parking, though easy, was on the road rather than in a dedicated lot.
  • Potential chilliness in rooms — A guest recommended having more blankets available as the room was 'a wee bit chilly', and there is no explicit mention of air conditioning.
