Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Comfort can vary — Comfort scores a bit lower than other categories, so expect a more basic setup in dorms.
  • Facilities not top-tier — Facilities score 8.4 – decent but not outstanding, so don't expect luxury amenities.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place – policies explicitly forbid pets.
  • Check-in window — Check-in is limited to 14:30–23:59, so late-night arrivals may need to plan ahead.
