Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms need an update
Guests observed that the facility is in serious need of an
update. They saw peeling wall paper and paint, and dirty and sticky carpets all
over the hotel. The non-smoking rooms smelled of smoke. The room key did not
work most of the time. They found mold all over the shower and wet spots on the
ceiling. Door hinges were reportedly dirty, and tiles were cracked. They found
that the fitted sheets did not fit the mattresses and pillows were small and
square. They also had to request for clean towels every time.
negative:
Dirty laundry room
Guests found the laundry room to be dirty and dysfunctional
most of the time

ceiling, tiles, tables and chairs.
