Just horrible customer service!A complete rip off
Pros:

I never stayed it this property. They had no availability. The stated they were adjusting a room a customer. That’s how I was able to book. I had not received my refund even though I didn’t stay there. They are blaming booking and bookings blaming them. I just need my refund. It’s quite simple. I never stayed there. Give me my money back

Cons:

No availability but took my money anyway and refuse to give me my refund!
