Negative Reviews
negative:
Bedrooms are not the best value.
A consistent complaint found in reviews is the size of the rooms. Many people find the accommodations too small to be comfortable in, and the outdated decor and amenities don’t quite match up with the price.
negative:
The free Wi-Fi is a tad patchy.
Although advertised as available throughout the property, the free Wi-Fi signal doesn’t reach all of the guestrooms. Where the signal does reach, it’s not stable enough for most people to get much done. The same goes for the hotel’s mobile coverage.
negative:
Restaurant service is slow.
Aside from being a place to stay near the beach, Sun Bay Hotel is also well known for its casual restaurant. While many people enjoy the food, the atmosphere is perhaps a bit too casual as service is generally slow and wait staff is inattentive.
