Hotel needs remodelling.
Guests have mentioned how the hotel’s décor is out-dated and a bit stale. The old fashioned and primitive feel didn’t appeal to visitors who note that the hotel could use a refurbishment to help improve things.
negative:
Wi-Fi is sort of free.
Visitors note their annoyance over being charged extra to use the Wi-Fi in their rooms. Having to journey down to the lobby to use free Wi-Fi served as an unwelcomed inconvenience according to many visitors.

What’s that smell.
