Negative Reviews
negative:
Not ageing gracefully
Certain renovations have been made in recent times but there have still been many guests commenting on the old nature of this hotel. The rooms were said to look 'tired' with worn-out towels and outdated decor.
negative:
Loud Air-conditioning
The complaints regarding the air-conditioning being loud were all from guests who rated this hotel highly. Therefore it's fair to say that this did not detract from the experience but the air-conditioning has received complaints that it can be rather loud.
negative:
House-keeping attention to detail lacking
Guests have complained about certain features in their room not being cleaned well. Particularly bathroom amenities. House-keeping applying a general attention to detail when it comes to cleanliness will go a long way and make a big difference to guests.
