Negative Reviews
negative:
Internet connection is slow
The hotel provides a free Wi-Fi connection in the entire establishment. However, many guests complained about the slow connection. You can visit the cafes where there's also a free Wi-Fi, or you can just bring your own Internet device.
negative:
Noise can enter the rooms
All rooms are fully furnished, well maintained, and spacious. However, some feel that the walls are too thin because they can hear conversations from adjacent rooms or noise coming from the hallways. When you experience this issue, you can ask for a room transfer.
negative:
Minor issue with the elevator
Some of the guests reviewed the elevators in the hotel as 'the slowest elevators in the planet'. This is pure exaggeration, but you may find it too that the elevators could be slow. You can always take the stairs for a challenge, but waiting patiently is not that big deal.
