Negative Reviews
negative:
Avant garde decor is a little much
Some guests felt that the decor throughout the hotel and in the bedrooms was a little garish and over the top. This didn't take away from their overall experience of the hotel however feedback was that the bedrooms could be made a little more understated.
negative:
Unimpressive taxi service
Guests have commented that the local taxi service to the hotel is quite expensive and sometimes unreliable. Guests may wish to consider alternative options for getting around, such as the hop on, hop off tour bus or an alternative taxi company.
negative:
Slightly impersonal
A handful of guests have remarked that the hotel is lacking a 'personal touch'. Although service is generally good, those looking for a more passionate service from staff may wish to consider an alternative accomodation.
