Negative Reviews
negative:
Disappointing Room, Paper-thin walls
Some reviewers left this property feeling very disappointed by the rooms as they felt that they were tiny and were too small to be comfortable. Some guests also thought that due to the small surroundings the sound-proofing was less than ideal and as a result guests had a disrupted nights sleep.
negative:
Weak Water Pressure
Some guests felt that the water pressure in the showers was particularly bad given the Rydges hotel chain's reputation. Reviewers commented that they had not had similar problems at other Rydge's properties and felt like this one was slipping a bit.
negative:
Grubby Hotel in Need of a Refurb
Some reviewers felt that the hotel was showing signs of wear and tear and was in need of a good deep clean and overhaul of its furniture and common areas.
