1. Was a nice hotel just felt dated for some reason.

2. True, the furniture in this place may be a little dated; would you rather have a more updated room or one that is classy yet clean with reasonable rates? The dated furniture is reminescent of the tropics with its bamboo bed, Hawaiian lamps and chairs.

3. The room itself is dated, non-flat screen tv, dated decor, peeling paint etc, but the price is good compared to the other hotels on this street.

5. I do not think it is too much to ask to keep a hotel clean on the outside? The interior of our room was clean but VERY dated.

8. Decor was dated from the lobby to the rooms and beyond - to the extent that I felt I was caught somewhere in the early 90s.

9. The grounds seem like it has alot of potential, surrounded by water with amazing views, however, it seems dated and can use some renovation.
