Honest review
What could be better
- —The hotel needs a major renovation to address the crumbling infrastructure, peeling paint, and rusty railings that guests are noticing.
- —They should better manage and communicate ongoing construction, as the noise is disrupting guests' ability to enjoy the hotel and its facilities during the day.
- —The hotel must update its guest experience by replacing outdated features like physical keys and revitalizing its namesake "library," which is currently seen as neglected and underwhelming.

How we choose
Every hotel on this list is cross-checked across Google, Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Agoda and Hotels.com — plus first-hand traveler accounts on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok. We screen aggressively for fake or incentivised reviews and weight only verified, recent, substantive guest feedback. We accept no paid placements and no sponsored reviews. When affiliate links earn a small commission, we disclose it; it never influences which hotels appear here.
