Negative Reviews
negative:
Pool closes too early for some
The pool at the hotel is open from 8 am until 9 pm. The opening hours were more than sufficient for some guests but others mention that the 9 pm finish was too early. It's probably not a huge problem but does mean that late night dips are out of the question.
negative:
Limited TV channels
Several guests mention that they found the selection of cable channels disappointing. There doesn't seem to be all that many premium/popular channels on offer. Luckily, the Wi-Fi seems stable, so if nothing else, you can stream content online.
negative:
Beds could be better
A number of reviews suggest that it could be time for the hotel to replace the beds in the rooms. Guests describe the mattresses as thin. Unfortunately, the memory foam toppers don't seem to make much of a difference.
