Negative Reviews

Buggy issues.

There have been a number of complaints about people being bugged - literally - at this hotel. One guest mentioned dealing with biting fleas around the pool area. A few people also mentioned receiving severe bites in rooms - bed bugs were suspected.

Upgrades could be needed.

People have commented about the entire hotel needing an upgrade. Complaints have revolved around issues such as mold in rooms, dirty rugs, old bedding, air conditioners not working properly and broken bathroom fixtures. One person got locked in the bathroom because a latch broke. A few people also mentioned that the lack of an elevator was disappointing.

Issues with bookings.

Several guests mentioned the rooms they booked either didn't live up to the online descriptions or they didn't receive the room type they had initially booked.
