Negative Reviews
negative:
Pool could be bigger
Many guests said that the hotel's pool left much wanting in the way of size. They were disappointed to check in and find that they could not do much more than walk around in the water. And, it is closed during fall, winter, and part of spring, causing frustration for many guests.
negative:
Older building
The hotel aims at keeping a Roosevelt theme in its decor, but to some guests, this theme is a bit dated. They said that many aspects of their accommodation, ranging from the carpets to desks and drawers, could have used a serious update.
negative:
Rooms could have been cleaner
Disappointed guests often had issues with the hotel's sanitary standards. They said that upon arriving, they were upset by everything from mold on bathroom tiles, to stains on sheets. Many were not impressed by the efforts of the maintenance staff in between the nights of their stay, either.
