I was very disappointed upon arrival at the property. The place is under renovation and they didn’t mention it at all on Expedia. I’ve sent out emails to the property before my arrival and no one answers me till today. The whole place is dirty with people working on the site. They mentioned in their bio they have restaurant but there isn’t one. I’m so disappointed and I wish I can get a refund of my money or at least a compensation.
