Negative Reviews
negative:
The walls are rather thin
Unfortunately, the walls and ceilings here are rather thin which may cause you to have a less than quiet stay. Not only can you hear the goings on in the room next to you but the sound of footsteps above your head could keep you awake.
negative:
The bathrooms are small
The bathrooms are on the small side which could be inconvenient if you are travelling with more than one person or need extra room to manoeuvre. The bathrooms could also use an update as fixtures that need replacing could detract from your stay.
negative:
There's no air conditioning in the guest rooms
Things can get stuffy in the guest rooms during warm weather, as they do not have air conditioning. The windows do open, which can bring some relief, but if it's hot outside, this may make things worse.
