The hotel is equipped with two disabled rooms and the bathroom shower is fully equipped for wheelchair access. These rooms are also connected to the room next door, so if necessary, they can give you two communicating rooms. The rooms are situated on 2nd floor, near the elevators.

It has revolving doors, but just beside these is an entrance for wheelchairs. The hotel does not have large signage for people with sight problems and there is no Braille in the lifts.
