Some Staff Need Guest Service Training
Guests mentioned that the front desk staff can be anywhere from indifferent to rude. Others mentioned that suspicious charge showed up on their bills. Furthermore, guests spoke of computer problems that led to parking issues. In addition, travellers cited housekeepers who seem to push visitors out the door or didn't restock items such as fresh towels or toiletries.
negative:
Room Layouts Annoying
Guests remarked that the bathrooms have a sliding door that doesn't set against the door frame so it provides very little privacy when travelling with a companion. Others commented that there are only showers; no bathtubs and that the rooms can feel rather small and compact.
negative:
Can Seem Somewhat Pricey
Travellers cited that they felt that the hotel should have included more perks, such as a larger pool or better Wi-Fi for the guests. Because of this, they felt the price didn't quite match what they were given in amenities.
