Upon arrival there was much confusion about my booking and my request to upgrade to an air conditioned room took about 45minutes of phone calls. When I did get to the room there was a live rat in the toilet. No apologies for this or follow up. Would not recommebd ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Nov 9, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ikke bra! Rommet: seng+bad. Ikke trykk i dusjen. I hotellbeskrivelsen står det bl.a frokost og restaurant. Dette stemmer ikke. Vi måtte spise alle måltider andre steder. Ingen lokale hadde hørt om hotellet under navnet på nett. Men under navnet yaya inn.. Står beach hotellet,men det ligger ikke på stranden. ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Barcelona](https://www.expedia.ca/Barcelona-Hotels.d179992.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [FOX JAFFNA by Fox Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-FOX-JAFFNA-By-Fox-Resorts.h17399149.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Resort Mosaic Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Resort-Mosaic-Suites.h35593864.Hotel-Information) > > [Smile Hotel Tokyo Nihonbashi](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Smile-Hotel-Tokyo-Nihonbashi.h4019612.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Campbell-River-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites.h9423557.Hotel-Information) > > [Divya Sutra Plaza and Conference Centre, Vernon, BC](https://www.expedia.ca/Vernon-Hotels-Riviera-Plaza-Conference-Center-Vernon-British-Columbia.h1613981.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard By Marriott Nashville Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Nashville-Downtown.h119062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Rocky Mountain National Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Rocky-Mountain-National-Park-Hotels.0-l6130051-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Resort.h1487820.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.ca/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [RivetStays - The Atmos](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-RivetStays-The-Atmos.h92074286.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Cobourg](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobourg-Motels.d7539-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Tortola](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Tortola.d1116.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Motels Sooke](https://www.expedia.ca/Sooke-Motels.d181789-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Merritt](https://www.expedia.ca/Merritt-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d10585-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Palm Springs (PSP) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/psp/lax/palm-springs-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Johannesburg (JNB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/jnb/winnipeg-to-johannesburg) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to San Antonio (SAT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/sat/detroit-to-san-antonio) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Lisbon District (LIS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lis/toronto-to-lisbon) > > [Flights from Liberia (LIR) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lir/yul/liberia-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Dieppe (YQM) to Punta Cana (PUJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqm/puj/moncton-to-punta-cana) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yvr/edmonton-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Hyderabad (HYD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/hyd/montreal-to-hyderabad) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Xiamen (XMN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/xmn/calgary-to-xiamen) > > [Flights from San Francisco (SFO) to Beijing (PEK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sfo/pek/san-francisco-to-beijing) ### Packages > [Akumal Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Akumal-Beach-Akumal.d6074372.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Dominican Republic](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/50/Dominican-Republic)
