In brief
What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Breakfast variety is limited — While the breakfast buffet is decent, some guests found it repetitive across days.
- Value for money is a mixed bag — The price-to-quality ratio didn't impress everyone, with Value scoring lower than other categories.
- Rooms may have an extra bed, not a triple — Some guests booked a triple but received a double with an extra bed, which could be a consideration for larger groups.
