Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Limited indoor spaces — Several rating categories are lower, suggesting the indoor areas or certain facilities may not impress as much as the outdoor ones.
- Check-in window is set — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight would need to plan accordingly.
- Pool is a plunge pool — The pool is small (plunge pool), so it's for a quick dip rather than serious swimming.
