Negative Reviews
negative:
No-frills experience
Some guests have complained that an amount of 'frills' had been lacking for the price paid. No room service and guests hafting to carry luggage, as there is no bellman, did not fit the price paid. Guests have simply expected a bit more of a sophisticated and luxurious stay at the Watertown Hotel.
negative:
Unreliable Air-conditioners
Guests have returned to a sweltering room after a day out due to the air-conditioners not being in working order. Problems were also experienced at night where the air-conditioner turned off and the room heated up to very uncomfortable temperatures.
negative:
Attention to detail lacking
Insofar as the cleaning is concerned, there is a lack of attention to detail when rooms are made up and prepared for new guests. Guests have found beds unmade and other displeasing surprises upon entering their room. Nothing extreme enough to deter the reaosnable person, but more of an effort could be made by management to compel cleaning staff to clean properly.
