As mentioned above, the reviews used for this analysis were mainly positive but there was some negative feedback that focused on dated decor and furnishings and the small breakfast area.

The biggest criticism from reviewers was that the hotel needed major upgrades. They felt the furnishings were old and needed to be refreshed and the decor was extremely dated. A couple guests said the decor looked like it was from the 80's.

A couple guests felt the breakfast area was too small and felt the layout could have been better organized.
