Negative Reviews
negative:
Wireless internet speeds are very slow
A number of guests were dissatisfied by the slow Wi-Fi reception. This was for the most part evident at night when the number of users increases. Some guests had to go to the lobby in order to access the internet.
negative:
The hotel's rooms are in need of an overhaul
The furniture and decor was seen as being a bit dated by a few of the guests. Some rooms had carpets that were a little worn out in some areas. The air conditioning also seemed to be malfunctioning and that made for very hot rooms.
negative:
The hotel appeared to be understaffed at times
A few guests have complained about the lack of adequate staffing at the hotel. During peak hours when the hotel was at full capacity, the restaurant appeared to be rather frantic and orders were delayed. On a few occasions guests were inconvenienced due to fewer employees to serve them.
