Smells bad, very outdated, feels dirty, stains on furniture, only allowed one toilet roll for your entire stay, fly screens have massive holes, view from balcony was the owners courtyard full of rubbish and old hotel future that needs to go to the dump. Common area/stair smells like cat pee. The only thing good was the pool/spa. ##### Tenancy Skills Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Aditi Oct 14, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication They charged us an additional 200 dollars for bond and 12 dollars for checking in late which wasn’t mentioned during anywhere while making the booking also after making the booking and confirming the reservation we were charged an additional fee of $11 USD for price hike. In short was a massive rip off for the run down rooms and services. ##### Aditi Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### David Aug 20, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication My family and I have travelled the world and stayed in hundreds of properties and have never experienced anything as disgusting as this property. \*Mould on the walls and all through bathroom \*Chewing gum and food in carpet. \*Cockroach ran out of cupboard which my children are terrified of. I had to kill it and dispose of immediately! \*Blood stains on dinning table \*Worn out bed sheets with holes and stains \*Foul odur \*Worn out furniture and smeared with bad stains. Totally unacceptable standard of accommodation and would never ever recommended anyone stay here! Still fighting with the host for a refund, but have contacts in the media and will not hesitate to go to them with my story. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Burleigh Surf Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Burleigh-Surf-Apartments.h4593274.Hotel-Information) > > [Brisbane Skytower by CLLIX](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Arise-Brisbane-Skytower.h19178209.Hotel-Information) > > [Belise Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Belise-Apartments.h16643532.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h11768.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in St. Lucia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-St-Lucia-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d168-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Slave Lake AB](https://www.expedia.ca/Slave-Lake-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Slave-Lake-AB.h869425.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels.d6141041.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Viceroy Riviera Maya, a Luxury Villa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Viceroy-Riviera-Maya.h903721.Hotel-Information) > > [Tangalooma Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Tangalooma-Island-Resort.h2254989.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea World Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Sea-World-Resort.h871443.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Hotels.d3997.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Travelodge by Wyndham Edmonton South](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Edmonton-South.h17724.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterslides in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Hotels-With-Waterslides.0-0-d180002-tHotelswithWaterslides.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu](https://www.expedia.ca/Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu-Hotels.d177761.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Kitchener (YKF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/ykf/halifax-to-kitchener) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yyz/winnipeg-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/cun/calgary-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Sidney (YYJ) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyj/las/victoria-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Myrtle Beach (MYR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/myr/toronto-to-myrtle-beach) > > [Flights from Kastela (SPU) to Rome (FCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/spu/fco/split-to-rome) > > [Flights from Kitchener (YKF) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ykf/yvr/kitchener-to-vancouver) > > [flights from detroit metropolitan wayne county airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/dtw/flights-from-detroit-metropolitan-wayne-county-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/178314/flights-from-toronto) > > [Flights from Cassidy (YCD) to Honolulu (HNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/hnl/nanaimo-to-honolulu) ### Cars > [Car rentals in New York](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-John-F-Kennedy-Intl.d4933194.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Vacation Rentals > [Edmonton Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Vacation-Rentals.d180002.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) ### General > [Visit Downtown Halifax](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Downtown-Halifax.dx6217399)
