Some guests
said that the rooms are slightly dusty, carpets are not very clean and the
toiletries are not replenished. They also said that they would have liked it if
room service was provided by the hotel.
negative:
Hard mattresses and soft pillows; heating issues
Several guests found the mattresses in the rooms too hard and the pillows soft! They also said that there is no heating in the rooms for a few hours in the afternoon. The temperature in general in the rooms could not be controlled as guests said it fluctuated a lot.

Disturbances from street and fans
Some guests experienced noisy disturbance from the street outside and from the cooling fans kept in the courtyard of the hotel on the rear side. This forced them to sleep with the windows closed to keep away the noise.
