Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Arrive anytime after 14:00 for self check-in using a link and code, convenient for late airport arrivals.

  • 02

    Plan to walk or use public transport; parking is not available and the city centre is a 10-minute walk away.

  • 03

    Request a room at booking if you have pets, as they are allowed only on request with possible charges.

  • 04

    Use the free luggage storage if available before check-in, as early bag drop is not confirmed (the property confirmed no bag drop in a prior query).
