1/5 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Wouldn't honor payment to Expedia & closed by 6 PM
They would not accept the payment that we had made online directly to Expedia. They did not have any record of our reservation or name. And they said we would have to pay them directly, even though we had already paid Expedia. This is bad both by the hotel and by Expedia, for not working this out. We want our money back, but we heard that Expedia is horrible for refunds and customer service. Also, the next night, when we went there at 6:18 PM, they were closed (both front & back doors). We called both of their numbers, and they didn't answer. We knocked on the doors and the windows, and couldn't get in or anyone to come. They had said there is no check in after 6 PM, and they mean it. Terrible service, terrible situation, terrible hotel. Expedia needs to refund our money paid online.

4/5 Good
