It is the basic human rights of smoker to smoke and... kill themselves (pardon me). But it also the basic human rights for anyone else to breathe a clean healthy air, and this is exactly that this hotel could not provide!
I don't understand why that between smoking segment and non-smoking segment on the hotel public areas only divided by building structural poles, Yes poles, not wall nor glass partition. Especially in the restaurant and coffee shop! Thank god I only stayed in this hotel for one night, because every time I enter the public area, I inhale the cigarette smoke of somebody's smoking.
This is the old hotel and the atmosphere is far from good. The carpet in the public area are full of stain of spill drink or sauce. Even on the couch and chair in the lobby and coffee shop you can find the very visible stain and it is really something bothering your mind since you keep wondering what that was. The same case also true for the carpet in the room and the carpet on the ball room... gloomy!
I think, the only good thing about this hotel is its location on the main road of the city that make it easy for you to get around. If you are staying looking for the quiet part of the city you will like its location, but if you fancy for shopping, you might want to choose some other hotel.
Room Tip: Ask the room which has new installed carpet.
