About
Front Arc

Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Facilities score is lower — The property scores 6.5 for facilities, suggesting the building and shared areas are more basic than the rooms themselves.
- Small rooms — At least one guest noted the room was compact, though clean and well-equipped.
- Curtains could be darker — One guest suggested darker curtains for better sleep quality, implying light may filter in.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 19:00, which may be tight for some travel plans.
- No pets — The property does not allow pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
