positive:
Rooms were fit for purpose
The bare bones rooms only had basic amenities but were more than adequately comfortable and clean for a short stay, according to many reviewers. However, there was criticism of some of the bathrooms for being too small together with infrequent reports of plumbing problems like interruptions to the hot water supply.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Patchy Wi-Fi reported
Although plenty of guests appreciated the free Wi-Fi and thought it offered fast speeds, it was difficult to connect to the network in certain rooms according to some critics.
negative:
Occasional cleanliness concerns
There were calls from some guests for pest control measures to be beefed up as critics occasionally claimed they encountered bugs and pests in some rooms at the property. Sometimes guests felt the floors in the rooms hadn't been sufficiently swept before their arrival.
negative:
Obstacles to sleep encountered
Noise from adjacent rooms and corridors was sometimes audible in the rooms, making it difficult for some light sleepers to rest. Some rooms were also exposed to traffic noise from the nearby highway or from trains passing along the tracks behind the property. Some guests felt the cold in the chilliest weather, occasionally prompting them to request electric heaters from reception in order to warm their rooms up more rapidly.
