We booked a private room and paid extra thinking we would get our own bathroom. The listing never mentioned that the room had a shared washroom, which wasn’t cleaned frequently. Otherwise, the beds were comfy and the property was very nice with an outdoor seating area, pool table, darts and ping pong. The guests and staff were also very friendly. The windows in the room didn’t block any sound from outside, so we were kept up by people hanging out and playing music in the common areas until 1am. Normally quiet time is after 10am.

Nice staff, cleaning could be better

Very friendly and helpful staff/owners. Really nice set-up with a huge outdoor area and comfy seating, big kitchen. Safe surroundings with plenty grocery shops open late, cafes and restaurants. Big room, well-lit. Wifi hit or miss. Quiet area and hardly any outside noise, but 1 of the nights loud music from within until 1am. Shared bathrooms defo didn't get cleaned through my 2-day stay, probably longer. Shaved off hair all over sink, soap tray too sticky to use.

Not your typical hotel. Free breakfast, but you have to wash your own dishes. There were a few bugs in the bathroom. Also, beds are not comfortable to sleep in. Staff was great. I would recommend this place to people flight solo, but not families. Great location.

No hot water :/

We got to the hostel late at night. It took the lady very long time to check us in. It was a hassle for her to try to let us park at the property. There was no hot water. We only spent 1 night there. The place seemed safe.

Confirmed room given away!!

When I got there, the reception said I had no room.That they had a problem with Expedia which he said Hotel.com is part of. After me showing my dissatisfaction he offered me a room with a shared bathroom, which was terrible !!!! It smell of cigarettes and it looks terrible. I told him that I wa not happy with how they treat me as a customer as they had my telephone number and could had called me. I had driven over 4 hours and all I wanted was to rest. The room which was confirmed by you guys was on suit by the way. Very very unsatisfied with this place .

No me atendieron jamás

Nunca me atendieron. Mandé mensajes por whatsapp, por esta aplicación, y apenas una vez me respondieron pero sin decirme nada. Pregunté varias veces si el hotel estaba funcionando y no contestaron, llegué y estuve 1 hora tocando timbre y jamás salieron. Me hospedé en un hotel a 100 mts de este, volvi al otro día por la tarde y tampoco hay nadie. Exijo que no se me cobre ningún importe.

Ni disculpas se han dignado a pedir una razon. M dejaron esperando afuera y nunca volvieron. Q pena que hoteles.com promueba porquerias de hosteles como este. Irresppnsables en todo sentido.
