Overall, I had a pleasant one-night stay here. I was initially hesitant, but the recent room renovations have done a great job of modernizing a very old hotel, and the room itself was comfortable.
However, I have a few suggestions that could significantly enhance the guest experience:
Cleaning Products: The scent of the cleaning products was extremely strong, which detracted from the room's freshness. I recommend exploring an alternative product that is still highly effective but has a milder, less clinical fragrance.
Ice Machine Placement: The current location of the ice machine near the entrance of some rooms poses a significant noise issue late at night. Relocating the machine to a less disruptive area would greatly benefit guests trying to sleep, particularly those in the adjacent rooms.
Guest Noise: I noticed a lack of awareness from some guests regarding noise levels in the evening. I would encourage the hotel to post gentle reminders about maintaining quiet in shared spaces after 10:00 PM (e.g., being mindful of loud talking and door-slamming and Thomping on the floor) to ensure a peaceful environment for all.
