Negative Reviews
negative:
Outdated rooms in need of updating
Although the style of the building is seen as part of its charm in some quarters, the condition of the rooms was regularly lambasted by past visitors that stayed at the accommodation. From distressed furnishings to outdated décor, the rooms were generally seen as past their best.
negative:
Noisy air conditioning units
A somewhat common source of criticism has been the hotel's air conditioning units. Whilst they were typically regarded as effective in controlling room temperature, they reportedly display one noticeable drawback: noise. Previous guests have often claimed that the noise from the air conditioning can be overbearing.
negative:
Bare bones option
With little in the way of public spaces or recreational activities, the accommodation has been labelled as very much a no-thrills choice by former visitors.
