Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Comfort scores low — The comfort rating is just 5.0, suggesting the beds, seating, or room conditions may not meet everyone's expectations.
- Dining is a weak point — Dining is rated 6.3, the lowest category, so don't expect a standout breakfast or on-site restaurant.
- Check-out is early — Check-out is at 10:00, which is earlier than many hotels, so plan your morning accordingly.
