When we arrive could not find the 5th bed, then the bed sheets dirty some of them got dried blood spots and one below case dirty. When we want to wipe the tables no cloth, plus the coaches so dirty. Unfortunately we are not happy with this experience. This should be relaxing time not stressful situation. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6cd386f3-8489-4c78-824e-8c5a689d71bf-1758712405595.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/657a6a21-d164-4fae-8358-0ad4b411136d-1758712436589.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Karam Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lone Star Court, by Valencia Hotel Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Lone-Star-Court.h7042909.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Barra da Tijuca](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Barra-Da-Tijuca-Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels.s50-n6053030-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Fotada](https://www.expedia.ca/Fotada-Hotels.d3000756588.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [B&B Orillia](https://www.expedia.ca/Orillia-Bed-And-Breakfast.d9268-aaBedAndBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Casino Hotels in Banff](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff-Hotels-Casino-Hotel.0-0-d10550-tCasinoHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [KAIKA TOKYO by THE SHARE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-THE-SHARE-HOTELS-KAIKA-Tokyo.h44129470.Hotel-Information) > > [fourseasons Hotels in Central United States](https://www.expedia.ca/Central-United-States-Hotels-Four-Seasons.0-0-d6209877--bFourSeasons.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Newcastle Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Coldstream-Hotels-Newcastle-Arms-Hotel.h18244725.Hotel-Information) > > [bestwestern Hotels in 100 Mile House](https://www.expedia.ca/100-Mile-House-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d6058290--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cabinas Piedra Luna](https://www.expedia.ca/Aguas-Zarcas-Hotels-Cabinas-Piedra-Luna.h95878177.Hotel-Information) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Whitehorse](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitehorse-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d4129-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kanata](https://www.expedia.ca/Kanata-Ottawa-Hotels.0-n6057858-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Polperro Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-Polperro-Villas.h9626677.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Arnavutköy (IST) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ist/yyz/istanbul-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Gander (YQX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/yqx/frankfurt-to-gander) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Auckland (AKL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/akl/vancouver-to-auckland) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yow/calgary-to-ottawa) > > [Flights from Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) to Pleiku (PXU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sgn/pxu/ho-chi-minh-city-to-pleiku) > > [Flights from High Level, AB (YOJ) to Calgary, AB (YYC-Calgary Intl.)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yoj/yyc/high-level-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Colorado Springs (COS) to East Haven (HVN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cos/hvn/colorado-springs-to-new-haven) > > [Flights from Bang Phli (BKK) to Tuban (DPS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bkk/dps/bangkok-to-denpasar) ### Packages > [Strawberry Hill Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Strawberry-Hill.d6338671.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Obelisco](https://www.expedia.ca/Obelisco-El-Centro.d6060857.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit San Juan](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Juan.dx3179) > > [Visit Sarasota](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota.dx602719)
