Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Moderate comfort score — The Comfort category scores 6.7, below other ratings. While not called out in reviews, this suggests the bedding or overall comfort may be basic for some guests.
- Shared bathrooms in most rooms — All dormitory rooms and the twin and single rooms list shared bathroom access as either shared or not specified. Only one review mentions an upgrade to a private bathroom, indicating it's not standard.
- No pets allowed — The policy explicitly states pets are not allowed, and the property is non-smoking throughout. This limits options for travelers with animals.
