Negative Reviews
negative:
Hallways and rooms need repainting.
You may observe that the wallpaper and paint on some of the rooms and the hallways are ripped-off and chipped. They look dirty and outdated, and are in a great need to be repainted. Upon checking in, be sure to ask for a well-maintained room with perfectly painted walls.
negative:
No elevators in the annex building.
The annex building does not have an elevator, and you need to climb the stairs if your room is on the second floor. This could be difficult for tired guests who have big or heavy luggage. Thus, reserve rooms only at the main building. If there’s none available, make sure to ask the staff for help in carrying your belongings.
negative:
Some staff members are ignorant and inconsiderate.
You might find yourself ignored at the reception sometimes. Some of the staff may seem unhelpful and unresponsive with your requests. Always ask nicely, and having patience all the time will not hurt.
