Negative Reviews
negative:
Uncomfortable beds
Far too many guests for comfort said that the mattresses the hotel used were simply not comfortable. Many did not go into details as to the reason, but those who did expand on the reasons often mentioned that they were too soft and did not offer enough support.
negative:
Problems with microwaves and fridges
An extraordinary number of guests reported having trouble with one of these amenities, with the complaints being that they made a noise or didn’t work properly, or even at all. This typically required the guests to request for them to be replaced, which was time consuming and a little annoying.
negative:
Pool a bit small
Guests mentioned being a little disappointed with the hotel’s pool, since it was, well, too little. They felt like it was fine just to refresh and splash around in, but that it was not suitable for proper swimming and laps.
