Negative Reviews
negative:
Noisy at night
While the Hotel Ocean's prime central location is mostly positive, it does come with one reported drawback: noise from the nearby bars and establishments. This noise apparently carries on until late into the night, and has been a common irritant for past visitors staying at the hotel.
negative:
Hotel showing its age
A variety of former guests have stated that certain aspects of the hotel, such as the private bathrooms and air conditioning units, are dated and worn down. With that said, renovations are ongoing in an effort to alleviate this negative to a large extent.
negative:
A lack of public facilities
The lack of public facilities has disappointed a small number of previous visitors to the Hotel Ocean. With no recreational spaces such as a swimming pool and fitness center provided, the hotel is not the best equipped if you are planning on staying on-site extensively.
