Worth weighing

5 to weigh

  • No on-site parking mentioned — Parking is not listed, so if you drive, you'll need to arrange your own parking nearby.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so plan for alternative arrangements if traveling with an animal.
  • Street noise possible — Given the central location on a street with bars and restaurants, some noise may carry into the apartments, especially in city-view rooms.
  • Non-smoking only — Smoking is not permitted on site, which may be a drawback for smokers.
