Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was generally very service minded and they were attentive to our needs. Rooms were in good condition, but are beginning to show signs of aging. A renovation would be a good idea. We were most disappointed with the hotel’s, food area. The food being served was well prepared and each day there was a different variety of foods to select from. The issue was not with the food itself, but rather with the fact that there is a cockroach infestation in the dining area. Two days in a row this was observed. The first day the bug was on the floor and a waiter attempted to discreetly step on it and dispose of it. However, on the second day, when trying to get a piece of cheese, a cockroach came out from under the cheese. This was reported to the staff. They apologized for this, and ultimately refunded me for only 1 day’s breakfast. They told me that they do have pest control, but if this is true the job being done is poor. Worse yet, not only do bugs breed germs, but now they are carrying pesticides onto the food. I am not certain that the staff appreciated enough the potential danger imposed on their guests. As I said though they were apologetic. We have not frequented the dining area since this occurrence, which is a big inconvenience. In the future, this experience would cause me not to consider staying at the City Garden Hotel.
