Stuffy
Although most guests had no problem, a few mentioned having trouble with the air conditioner in their rooms. Guests thought it didn't work well enough. In addition, the ventilation is poor in some rooms, so it can feel stuffy at times.
negative:
Small Spaces
Some of the standard rooms and bathrooms were too small for many guests' preferences. If you are travelling with a lot of luggage or as a couple, you may feel a bit cramped. There are many room options available, however, with various layouts and area.
negative:
Inconsistent Housekeeping
Housekeeping can be forgetful at times, resulting in sub-par cleaning and service. Guests have complained about towels and other items not being replenished after their cleaning. Several guests also mentioned not having their requests fulfilled, and having to call housekeeping to remind them.
