Negative Reviews
negative:
Nuisance noises and smells detected
Light sleepers were occasionally disturbed by nuisance noise from adjoining rooms and corridors, blaming thin walls for their plight. There were also reports that several rooms were exposed to occasional road noise. Lingering pet smells and smoky odours also bothered some critics.
negative:
No frills format had some critics
Several guests commented that certain rooms were rather small, especially when fully occupied. The no frills format also attracted criticism from some quarters because it meant there were no hairdryers, shampoo or hot drinks provisions provided in the rooms. The lack of breakfast also disappointed some travellers.
negative:
Minor cleanliness grumbles
Stained bedding, insufficiently cleaned bathrooms and litter leftover from previous occupants were among the minor cleanliness issues encountered by visitors in some rooms.
