Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms lack staple amenities.
While guests simply
looking for somewhere to rest find the hotel suitable enough, those used to a
little more luxury don't tend to be as keen on the hotel. According to reports,
bare bones rooms can be a little too basic, missing the likes of air
conditioning, iron, refrigerator and microwave.
negative:
Wi-Fi limited to lobby, courtyard.
The hotel's policy of providing Wi-Fi in the lobby and outside courtyard only has proven unpopular with those guests used to staying connected while away from home. Travellers requiring the internet may wish to keep these limitations in mind.
negative:
Noisy neighbourhood can be disruptive.
While the hotel's central
location is undeniably convenient, guests report that it can also be noisy. The
hotel is located above a bar and opposite other lively nightspots. As a result,
the sound of late night revellers can be heard deep into the night, leaving some
struggling to get a good night's sleep.
