Pretty decent breakfast

Negative Reviews

negative:

Stuffy rooms

Many guests complained about not having a window in their rooms, with the result that they felt claustrophobic. The rooms didn't have enough fresh air flow, and many of them had an unpleasant mildew smell.

negative:

Too many ants

There were several complaints from guests about an infestation of ants, so if you want to make sure your room is as clean as can be, bring along some ant spray just to make sure. Although the rooms are cleaned well by the house-keeping staff, the ants keep coming back for those little bread crumbs left behind.

negative:

No issues reported.

So far, no recent negative opinion has been expressed by guests about this hotel.
