Negative Reviews
negative:
Poor soundproofing in rooms
Loud noises outside or in adjacent rooms are prone to being audible through the walls. If you need to make sure you're able to go to bed early or sleep in late, you will bring earplugs.
negative:
Quality of Internet connection is weak
Most of the rooms have ongoing problems with Internet connectivity, so don't plan on getting much work done if you intend to rely on the hotel's Internet. If you really must work online during your stay, you are better off finding a hotel with a reputation for reliable Internet access.
negative:
The hotel does not allow outside guests
For security reasons, the hotel does not allow anyone to bring a guest from outside into their room. What's annoying is that this policy is not documented in the booking materials or on the hotel website.
