Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms have no air-conditioning
The rooms and suites of this hotel do not offer air-conditioning and consequently have been reported to become stuffy and hot, particularly in summer months. Many guests mention air-conditioning to be necessary at times, and state opening the windows lets in bugs and noise.
negative:
No swimming pool
The hotel does not have a swimming pool as part of its on-site facilities, this is something guests often comment upon. Many reviews feel that a swimming pool would complete this property, and state that it is something warranted by the price paid for a room here.
negative:
Dated and tired decor
Multiple guests mention the decor of the rooms and suites to be somewhat dated and lacking a contemporary feel. Reviews suggest the property could benefit from a refit to bring the rooms up to a modern standard, whilst refreshing some of the facilities that are worn and tired looking.
