Negative Reviews
negative:
Furnishing needs some upgrades
Some of the furnishings look like they are about ten years old. Most of them have minor scratches. However, this is not a big deal since the said amenities still serve their purpose well. Moreover, the overall ambience remains great.
negative:
Issues with the linens
The beddings and carpets have good qualities but they are sometimes damp or dusty. Thus, you are advised to ask the staff for replacements and avoid being barefoot. Better yet, you can request to be transferred to another room.
negative:
Hotel needs to impose policies properly
The hotel has non-smoking rooms. It's ironic because these rooms smell like ashtrays. If you see anyone violating the rules, report the incident to the staff. Moreover, the staff is efficient in spraying air fresheners. Opening the windows can also help in getting rid of the smell faster.
