Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Moderate guest ratings — Rooms, service and value all score around 7.6–7.7, while facilities sit at 7.5 — mid-range rather than exceptional.
  • Check-in window ends at 20:00 — Arrivals are only accepted between 13:00 and 20:00, so late-evening flights or transfers could be a problem.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, and all rooms are non-smoking.
  • Not central to the main sights — Several major attractions, including the Metropolitan Cathedral and Escadaria Selaron, are around 2 km away — a drive rather than a walk.
