Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Comfort scores lower — The comfort category sits at 5.9, the lowest rating. While rooms are described as spacious and cool, general comfort may not match other aspects.
- Mixed bathroom arrangements — Some private rooms come with shared bathrooms, which may not suit everyone. Dormitories share facilities by design.
- Strict check-out window — Check-out is only from 07:00 to 11:00, which could be tight for late sleepers or those with afternoon departures.
- No pets allowed — Travellers with animals cannot bring them, which may be a limitation for some.
