Bad experience

Found it difficult to check in they didn’t have my information for my online booking. The floor was dirty. The bathroom was dirty and not user friendly. I checked out earlier than I booked for and they refused to refund me.

Its a scam, the building is not operational , I was told the guesthouse burned down when I went for check -in, I did not even get a refund , I had to make other arrangements for my accommodation. That is not acceptable.
