Renovation is a must
Guests found the main building of the inn to be dilapidated. According to them, the whole property needed to be renovated. There was also no lighting in some areas of the parking lot, which could be dangerous. They also noted that the front lobby smelled bad. The carpet is old and dirty, and needs to be replaced. The air conditioners did not work most of the time. There was frost build up in the freezer. The shower in the bathrooms had less water pressure. One guest complained of bugs and cockroaches in the rooms.

Other issues
There are no lifts in the property. There was also no security in the premises. Hence some guests felt unsafe. The housekeeping staff knocked on the door despite the DND sign outside. The rooms are not soundproofed and offer no views.
