Negative Reviews
negative:
Smoky Premises
Some guests found the smoky atmosphere of the rooms and public spaces to be overbearing and annoying. They could not find a nice, smoke-free spot in the premises and for people who choose not to smoke or have allergies it was a distraction.
negative:
Free WiFi not Working Properly
The guests who used the Internet connection were surprised by the slow and spotty connection from the motel. They expected to have a reliable and fast service but were disappointed when for the most part, this was not the case. Some people have to work online or check important matters so it is a normal service nowadays.
negative:
Poor Shower Pressure
Some guests had a hard time having a decent shower with hot water. Some found the water was cold and took too long to turn warm or did not turn warm at all. The water pressure was not good enough and seemed like it hadn't been cleaned in a while.
