Negative Reviews
negative:
Bed system doesn’t suit everyone
Although many guests found the Sleep System beds comfortable, others found them far too firm, even after using the dial to adjust the settings. It’s likely a matter of personal preference more than anything else but you may encounter problems if you prefer a softer mattress.
negative:
Minor maintenance issues
Although the rooms here attract positive feedback, guests have encountered minor maintenance issues. These typically relate to noisy in-room amenities such as the air-conditioning units and the mini-fridges, although a number of guests also report some examples of poor maintenance in the bathrooms.
negative:
Breakfast not included
Guests tend to be quite disappointed by the lack of a free breakfast at this hotel. Room rates here are not particularly low and guests are, perhaps unsurprisingly, of the opinion that a free breakfast would add value.
