  • Dining options are limited on-site — The property has a snack bar and coffee shop, but no full restaurant. Guests may need to explore nearby eateries for main meals.
  • Small, compact room sizes — While clean and functional, some rooms are described as compact – those expecting generous space might find them snug.
