Worth weighing

3 to weigh

  • No on-site dining — The property doesn't mention any restaurant or breakfast service, so you'll need to plan meals elsewhere.
  • Modest overall score — With an 8.7 rating from 78 reviews, it's solid but not top-tier—some travelers may prefer properties with higher averages.
