Negative Reviews

negative:

No air-conditioning.

Guests who stayed at the hotel during warmer weather said that their rooms felt uncomfortably warm due to a lack of air-conditioning units. Some did not want to open their windows and balcony doors because of insects and were therefore supplied with fans.

negative:

Slow service.

Some guests reported waiting rather a long time to get served at the bar whilst others also complained about waiting to get their meals at the restaurant. Similar issues were experienced during check-in and check- out as guests said that the reception was often unmanned.

negative:

Lack of atmosphere.

The restaurant was said to lack any atmosphere and the decor reminded many of a canteen. There was no background music and guests who were hoping for a fine dining experience were left disappointed.
