Had problems checking in, they double billed me. They only had make your pancakes and waffles, no eggs except hard boiled and after one bit it didn’t taste good and had to throw it out. The drapes didn’t close all the way I had to tape them together.
Pretty quiet not to busy breakfast was great only issue never knew there was an extra charge when having non guest go swimming that should be posted somewhere so guest are not blindsided by the extra 10 dollar fee and we noticed some guest didn’t have to pay only in my case my children were wihh the me
I made check -in for wrong day. It was couple hours ago and i didn't realize it was set on Sat not Sun. Then I read non-refundable 😔. I am disabled and make mistakes like that. My caregiver wasnt with me and usually does stuff like this for me. Are their any conditions for refunds? I am stiil staying with on Sun- the intended day/night.
I walked into the room and saw cockroaches, eatwig skins, flies and boreholes that were patched and painted over, they wouldn't mive me or refund me because i used 3rd party site. I left immediately. Not happy. So they can literally put u in a dumpster and u cant do anything because of booking through 3rd party?
