Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Basic accommodations — Rooms are functional rather than fancy, with only a fan in some and shared bathroom options for the lowest price point.
- Check-out is early — Guests need to be out between 05:00 and 10:00, which may be tight for those wanting a slow morning.
- Limited parking — Public parking is available but not guaranteed private space; it may require finding a spot on the street.
- Value rating is lower than other categories — While guests praise the price, the Value score of 8.2 is the lowest among rated categories, suggesting expectations vary.
