Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Basic, no‑frills rooms — Rooms are functional rather than luxurious — some guests found them simple, and there's no air conditioning listed.
  • Value rating is softer — While rooms are cheap, the Value score is the lowest category at 7.2, suggesting some guests felt the price didn't always match expectations.
  • Limited dining options — Dining scores 7.3 — while there's a restaurant, snack bar and vending machines, breakfast quality got mixed feedback.
  • Check‑in window — Check‑in is only from 16:00 to 23:30, which may be tight if you land late or need an early arrival.
