Negative Reviews
negative:
Minor complaints about the rooms.
The vast majority of guests are impressed by the rooms but occasional concerns do arise. Some guests would have liked to have a phone and more storage space in the rooms while others complained that there were too few towels in the bathrooms.
negative:
Waiting times in the restaurant could be better.
While some guests managed to get in and out of the restaurant in a reasonable amount of time, others found they were kept waiting for up to two hours. This is clearly unacceptable for what many guests consider as a business hotel.
negative:
Free Wi-Fi might disappoint.
You probably shouldn't expect too much from the free Wi-Fi at this hotel. Some guests were barely able to send an email never mind download anything. Leave some wiggle room in your budget to pay for premium access which is much faster.
