Maintenance and cleanliness issues

Critics mentioned drawbacks with budget motel
Lingering smoky odours and stale smells proved to be off-putting for travellers in several rooms. Critics also claimed they were sometimes undersupplied with towels. The lack of little extras in the rooms such as fridges, microwaves, hairdryers and shampoo came as a disappointment to several visitors. Some guests wished breakfast had been available too.
negative:
Grumbles over Wi-Fi charges
Paying for Wi-Fi access proved unpopular with travellers, who often said they felt the service should have been provided as a freebie.
