Negative Reviews
negative:
The hotel's beds are quite uncomfortable
A number of guests have complained about their mattresses being too hard and their pillows too flat and unyielding. The number of pillows was also on the lower side, with a few guests who were staying alone being given only one pillow.
negative:
Very slow Wi-Fi at the rooms
The hotel offers free Wi-Fi for the guests at the lobby though some guests have complained that the speed is too slow to do anything productive with. They were inconvenienced due to the signal only being strong at the crowded lobby and rather weak in their rooms.
negative:
Some showers are unable to produce hot water
A number of guests were surprised to find that even when hot water was available; their showers still produced cold water. Defective temperature controls were thought to be the problem and this was experienced in just a few rooms.
