Heat problems.

Noisy evenings.

The front of the hotel overlooks a busy intersection and some guests said that the level of noise from the traffic was quite intrusive. Others whose rooms overlooked the pool area also mentioned that they were disturbed by noise made by guests who stayed at the pool until late in the evening.

Issues with Wi-Fi.

Those who wanted to connect to the internet from their rooms were disappointed to find that the Wi-Fi signal was very weak and could only connect close to the reception area.
