Guests frequently complained that the appliance in the rooms that's responsible for heating and cooling is extremely loud. In some cases, the noise level made it hard for them to sleep.

Guests were disappointed to find that the pool seems to close for the season based on a predetermined date, rather than the weather conditions. For example, some guests said they visited during very hot months, but were told the pool was already closed until next year.

Although this hotel serves breakfast, guests sometimes mentioned that they wished the property offered a complimentary continental option. Some guests also said the offered items were expensive, so you may find better food values by looking outside of the hotel for something to eat.
