“We had booked a king suite but ended up in a double queen. The clerk was unable to explain why & unable to move us. No discount or refund was offered for our inconvenience.”
“The bed was very hard, and the pool has been out of order for over a year. But they still advertise an indoor pool.”
“Our room was comfortable, quiet, the bed amazing!, the bathroom clean. We were glad to have been able to get a room on such short notice! Excellent service!”
“Pool and spa being renovated — the booking website did not mention this and this was one feature that had influenced my decision.”
