Negative Reviews
negative:
Smelly non-smoking room
There are many visitors who just do tend to smoke in the rooms reserved for the non-smokers. Unfortunately this leaves a smelly room for the next guests. Perhaps you should bring some air freshener next time, just in case.
negative:
Metal framed beds
If you want to avoid a squeaky night at the MainStay Suites Mount Pleasant, then you should specify when you do your booking, that you would like a room without a metal-framed bed. According to a few guests these are the older beds, and they do tend to make a noise every time you turn.
negative:
Might be a little pricey
Some visitors have described the room price as really economical. Others, on the other hand, feel that the rooms are a bit on the steep side. Nonetheless, the amenities on offer, and the location of the hotel make this the perfect combination for many guests.
