The Bad
While reviews used for this analysis were mostly positive, a few common negative comments mentioned the hotel's decor and cigarette odours.

A few guests were disappointed with the hotel's decor and described it as "old and tired". There were a few reports of stains on the carpet, and a few reviewers felt there should be coffee/tea makers in the rooms. It should be noted however, that the majority of lodgers felt the hotel was more than worth the money they paid.

A couple of reviewers had issues with the smell of cigarette smoke in their rooms. They described the smell as stale, and being present even in their non-smoking rooms.
