The pictures make the property look good. Upon arrival it looks like the slums. I encountered a few roaches. The girl next door to my room was streaming, I have reason to believe she lives on the property. It smells old and mildew like. I was extra uncomfortable. I didnt even stay overnight on the property. They will not refund. I can't believe they are getting away with this.
The hotel was closed when we got there and I could call or live a message is was all full.
They did not refund all fees just half.
Please read their fine print
This was a terrible place. It was so bad we left and would have slept in our car if we didn't find another place. I can't believe you would recommend this place. It was dirty with mold in the closet, the window air conditioner was melted. It smelled of leftover vooking.The pillows looked more like floor mats than pillows. One bathroom to share with 6 other rooms. Absolutely disgusting.
I think a refund should be given. It cost over $400 to stay at another hotel that luckily had a cancellation.

They "changed locations" after letting us travel to the address listed in our reservation and then never even sent the code for entry so we were stuck outside with our luggage in a strange neighborhood until an Uber picked us up to take us to another place entirely.
This is not a motel. The owner contacted me 3 hours before check in claiming it had been sold and that I could stay at another of his houses. Didn't have a choice at that point. You should absolutely identify air b&bs on your site as different from other accomodation types.
Never stay here. They cancelled the booking I made for Feb 1 and I rebooked and they canceled again. So it cost me over $500 to stay at another place I had to book through Expedia. They would not refund the Feb 14th booking so I showed up Feb 14th at the address as per booking confirmation and the email from hotels.com they sent the day before and then I was told that the address had changed which was on the other side of the airport and at least a 20 minute drive away. I was scared all night and did not get any sleep in the “‘garden view” room which had no view. Shouting and screaming after midnight was scary.

Horrible experience, Owner cancelled when I arrived at property. Customer service found me another place for 4 times the cost and offered no other assistance.
i couldn't even sleep there because the door was close and nobody was there.By the street we can't even see that is a motel bcs its not write nowhere so we sleep somewerhe
It’s just someone’s property with rooms in residential area.
I couldn’t check in because rooms are full. They should have notified me earlier, not on the day I am going there.
Nothing worked. The phone, the hot tub , the gym, the coffee machine etc

It was a nightmare to stay there. Check in is non existent, no sign showing the place, no lighting, taxi could not find it. When we finally got in there was a couple sleeping in our bed. Amazing One of the worst stays ever
I do want to give a positive review for the manager, who lived around the corner and had to be woken up, in trying to help us

Things were clean and people nice, which was good, but bed was extremely cheap / thin, and air conditioner wasn't really working, so I basically got no sleep (naturally YMMV here). The shared bathroom situation with other guests thankfully wasn't an issue, though I could see it becoming one if folks all try to shower at the same time.
I made a reservation, arrived at the property, some unknown gentleman was standing infront of the closed reception office. The gentleman informed me that there was no rooms available.Mind you I made the reservation less than 1 hour from the time I arrived.
