Negative Reviews
negative:
Wi-Fi connection may not work at times
Wi-Fi access is available throughout in the property. However, there were some guests who find it difficult to connect to the Internet. Some say that it only works in the reception area, making it inconvenient for them to check their e-mails and update their social media accounts wherever they please.
negative:
Some rooms are too small
While there are some rooms that are spacious enough, some guests think that the Winter Green rooms are way too small for their liking. This could be discouraging, especially for those guests who are travelling with huge bags, and those who need a lot of space.
negative:
Breakfast may not be very satisfying
Although complimentary, the breakfast isn't very satisfying for some of the resort's guests. They noted that the available food in the restaurant was excessively limited, and the slow service was a bit disappointing.
