In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited food and dining score — Dining scores lower than other categories, and the property has no on-site restaurant; breakfast consists of self-serve goodies like corn flakes.
  • Facilities rate below other aspects — Facilities scored 4.9, the lowest rating category, suggesting the fitness centre and shared spaces may feel basic.
  • A walk from some transport stops — While the city centre is reachable on foot, at least one guest found the tram stop a bit of a distance away.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.

“Great location close to everything, top-notch staff, and everything was excellent. The hotel was very near the city centre, public transport, and a mountain. We stopped by Cold Rock for coffee and treats – it's close by, and I'd recommend it. I recommend this place.”
