Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms can be on the smaller side — Several guests noted compact room and bathroom sizes, even in upgraded categories.
- Nightlife noise potential — The rooftop club and jazz bar are popular, which could bring noise into the evening. One guest noted quietness, but the on-site bars may impact light sleepers.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may limit some travelers.
- Check-in window ends at 23:59 — Late arrivals after midnight may need to arrange alternative check-in procedures.
