I truly wanted to leave a positive review for this hotel because the rooms are spacious, comfortable, and clean. Unfortunately, the unprofessional behavior of the check-in staff and the false accusations made by the cleaning crew have forced me to share a very different experience.
On my very first night, I was accused of smoking in my room simply because I had left the “Do Not Disturb” sign on my door throughout the day. Later that evening, as I was returning to my room, the front desk confronted me and said that housekeeping had reported a smoking smell coming from my room. This accusation was completely false. I did not smoke in the room — and I never would.
To immediately resolve the situation, I asked the staff to come up to my room with me so they could verify it themselves. Once inside, it was clear there was no smoking smell at all. Despite this, the damage was already done. Being falsely accused in this manner was extremely upsetting.
I have traveled extensively around the world, from Tokyo, Indonesia, Thailand & Philippines to Kenia to numerous countries across Europe, having lived on three different continents over the past ten years. Never have I felt so unfairly treated in a hotel.
This situation was handled poorly and without professionalism. It reflects a serious lack of competence in management, which is a real shame because the hotel itself has potential. The right course would have been to wait next time they could enter my room to check if there was any type of smell. However, due to this experience, I cannot recommend staying here — especially when there are many other excellent and better hotels in town to choose from.
