Negative Reviews
negative:
Walking Distance is a Bit Far from Attractions.
For some guests, the hotel is a bit far from the main center of the city and not close enough to the beaches that are about a fifteen minute walk. Without the option of a vehicle, walking to the beach or city took too much time and public transportation is not very reliable.
negative:
Hotel is Ideal for Older Guests.
Some younger guests described the hotel as being an ideal place for people around their fifties or older given most guests are around this age. For some this was not a particular issue, but some would have enjoyed another type of vibe.
negative:
Dated Furnishings and Hotel.
For some guests, the hotel has passed its glory days given they found their room to be dated to the 70s or 80s, the mattresses that aged through the years. Some felt the hotel needed an overall interior update to have a fresh feel and look.
