The Good
Positive comments outnumbered negative ones in the reviews read and sourced for this report.
more The rooms were often described as clean, while a few reviewers added that their rooms were generally comfortable and spacious, although basic.
Guests who liked the hotel, found the staff accommodating, but there was a fair amount of negative comments toward the staff as well.
Several guests thought that the room rates were reasonable and that the hotel offered good value for the money they spent. Several reviewers appreciated the free breakfast service, although it was a very basic continental one.
Some reviewers found the hotel conveniently located close to restaurants and shopping.
The Bad
While a lot of reviews were positive, there was also a fair number of guests who did not like the hotel or enjoy their stay. The problems centred around a tired and unappealing property and unprofessional management.
more Several guests found the hotel too tired and dated, with old rooms and TVs. They described poorly-repaired fixtures and old and chipped furniture. It also did not meet the cleanliness expectations of a lot of guests, although more reviewers stated it was clean. Occasionally a guest would complain of bad odours, hard beds and noisy guests.
Staff was not always handling matters in a friendly or professional manner and several guests described run-ins and problems they had in their communication with the owners/staff. Guests were not always provided with breakfast at the advertised time as the staff was not there, guests were sometimes charged more than the agreed amount when booking online, and more than one guest complained of finding rooms with double-sized beds, when the hotel's own website states that all beds are queen size. In addition, some guests were expecting mini-fridges and microwaves to be in all the rooms, but when they got to the hotel, they found that their rooms did not have these amenities.
