Negative Reviews
negative:
Facilities at a minimum
One somewhat common grievance from past guests about the Marlin Hotel relates to the lack of facilities. If you are traveling with your own vehicle, arguably the biggest problem in this regard is that there is no on-site parking available, although alternatives are nearby.
negative:
Soundproofing issues
A small number of former visitors to the hotel have commented that the soundproofing in the rooms is not the best, with both internal and external noise supposedly being disruptive at times.
negative:
Underwhelming breakfast
Although some previous guests at the Marlin Hotel found the free continental breakfast to be sufficient and well presented, others were less than complimentary. Negative criticism generally revolves around the shortage of options available.
