Negative Reviews
negative:
Can be noisy at night
Some guests note that the hotel, being older, is not as well sound-proofed as it could be, so when the hotel is busy there can be noise audible through the walls and in the hallways. It's suggested by guests that light sleepers may want to keep a pair of earplugs or a white noise machine handy to get a good night's rest.
negative:
Disappointing and sparse breakfast
While some guests appreciate that the breakfast provided by the hotel is covered by the cost o the room, others feel that the options offered don't have much variety. These guests suggest treating the breakfast as more of a quick snack than a fulfilling meal in order to avoid being disappointed.
negative:
Facility a bit dated overall
There are a few guests who feel that while the hotel is generally clean and comfortable, the building is old and beginning to show its age.
