Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Modest value for money — The overall rating is 6.7 and the value score dips to 6.4 — a reminder that the trade-off for the location and parking is a more basic stay.
- Rooms are simple — Rooms score 6.8 — they're clean and functional, but don't expect much beyond heating, a kettle and a flat-screen TV.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog, this isn't the place — the policy is a firm no.
