Negative Reviews
negative:
Cramped rooms.
Guests say that the rooms are very small, and particularly
if you're travelling as a family, you might find it a real squeeze. Some guests
also mention that some rooms have no wardrobes or drawers, so your clothes
might have to stay in the suitcase.
negative:
Maintenance problems.
The rooms are in need of some maintenance, according to
guests, who have encountered issues such as broken showers, loose light
fittings, and outdated furniture in need of replacing, which can make for a
less enjoyable stay than you might be hoping for.
negative:
Not the best neighbourhood.
The local neighbourhood doesn't make the best impression,
and leaves some guests feeling a little unsafe, particularly at night. This can
be a particular issue if you're travelling with young children, and you might
not be all that keen to venture out after dark.
