On arrival realized there was no fridge in room for medication. Was communal type living and had incense smell which causes migraine headaches. I explained our health needs to the owner. The photos in the ad are enhanced and the quality of the room is nothing like the photos Spoke to the owner to explain it was not right for us and we couldn’t stay. He agreed to a 1 night stay refund as we had booked 2 nights but we had to go through Expedia. I have done that and he has refused to refund any of the stay. Expedia have been great but the owner cannot be believed. ##### Vicki Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helena Jan 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Vacker trädgård, mysigt ##### Helena Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Grand Palladium Select Costa Mujeres - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Costa-Mujeres-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h23056532.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Matera](https://www.expedia.ca/Matera-Hotels.d602067.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Bloomington](https://www.expedia.ca/Minneapolis-St-Paul-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Bloomington.h1312447.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Fuessen](https://www.expedia.ca/Fuessen-Hotels.d5160.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Fairmont Vancouver Airport In-Terminal Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Fairmont-Vancouver-Airport-In-Terminal-Hotel.h432651.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramblas Barcelona](https://www.expedia.ca/Barcelona-Hotels-Ramblas-Barcelona.h17191.Hotel-Information) > > [Mr. Tucan Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Roatan-Hotels-Mr-Tucan-Hotel.h16427548.Hotel-Information) > > [Kamana Lakehouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Kamana-Lakehouse.h983589.Hotel-Information) > > [Ermita Cartagena, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Cartagena-Hotels-Ermita.h42504908.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels-Cambridge-Suites-Hotel.h2858.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d178245-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Fort Arabesque Resort, Spa & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-Fort-Arabesque-Resort.h5806203.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Orange County](https://www.expedia.ca/John-Wayne-Airport-Hotels.0-aSNA-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Almaty (ALA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ala/toronto-to-almaty) > > [Flights from Seattle (SEA) to Palm Springs (PSP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sea/psp/seattle-to-palm-springs) > > [Korean Air](https://www.expedia.ca/Korean-Air-Flights.cKE.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Cairns (CNS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/cns/vancouver-to-cairns) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Gatwick (LGW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/lgw/calgary-to-london) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Sidney (YYJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yyj/calgary-to-victoria) > > [Flights from Windsor (YQG) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqg/yyc/windsor-to-calgary) ### Activities > [Things to do in New Brunswick](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-New-Brunswick.d11161.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Honolulu Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu.d1488.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Whistler Visitor Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Whistler-Visitor-Centre-Whistler-Village.d6312048.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Negril Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Negril.d2543.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Flower Market](https://www.expedia.ca/Flower-Market-Amsterdam-City-Centre.d6064677.Vacation-Attraction) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations)
