Negative Reviews
negative:
Boring Breakfast
Most guests weren't too impressed with the breakfast offered, saying it's quite boring and carb-heavy, offering just coffee and pastries.
negative:
Old Amongst the New
Though many rooms were recently renovated, several guests thought modern updating is still necessary. Rooms that were not renewed clearly show their age. The carpets need to be replaced, and the walls need to be repainted. In addition, many guests didn't like the old fashioned TV and some were bothered by a stale smell of cigarettes in non-smoking rooms.
negative:
Weak Wi-Fi
Though most guests didn't have a problem with the internet, a few said that they had trouble connecting to the Wi-Fi, while others said it was just too slow to surf on comfortably.
