Check-out is at 10:00; late check-out may incur extra charges.
No breakfast is available on site; all meals must be taken elsewhere.
No parking is available; nearby paid parking is expensive.
Pets are not allowed.
The property has no lift and the family room is on the first floor with 3 flights of stairs; mobility scooter storage is available in the basement but the building is not fully accessible.
Some rooms have known issues with bed bugs, particularly room 16, and the property is in need of renovation; guests should inspect the room upon arrival and avoid rooms with a negative history if concerned.
Reported issues include broken fixtures, mold, sewerage smells, and very small bathrooms; the hotel is run down and basic even by budget standards.
