Worth weighing

  • Rooms can feel small — Some guests mentioned the rooms being cozy rather than spacious, which may not suit those expecting larger quarters.
  • Limited on-site dining for snacks — While the restaurant serves meals, guests suggest bringing your own snacks, noting a small store across the street for supplies.
