Staff offered to get switch it with one from the next room. Asked why it was not replaced and was told the owners have been repeatedly told about but they were ignored. No ceiling fan only an a/c which is unsuitable on cold and rainy days or if you have dry skin and avoid using too much air-conditioning. Cracked loose ceramic tiles both in the room and entrance to the rooms. I made an online booking for a room with 3 single beds viewing picture on website. But on arrival l was told they no longer do online bookings and therrfore was forced to pay more than l bargained for by taking a family room. But it is walking distance from Galo if you dont mind using the short cut. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kishen Makanji Jan 14, 2021 ##### Kishen Makanji Stayed 1 night in Jan 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cycad Palm Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Serowe-Hotels-Cycad-Palm-Hotel.h30207132.Hotel-Information) > > [Phokoje Bush Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Phokoje-Bush-Lodge.h38974956.Hotel-Information) > > [Vacation Homes Panorama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panorama-Private-Vacation-Homes.d181783-aaPrivateVacationHomes.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Peermont Mondior, Gaborone](https://www.expedia.ca/Gaborone-Hotels-Peermont-Mondior.h1400360.Hotel-Information) > > [South Mobile Camp](https://www.expedia.ca/Nxai-Pan-National-Park-Hotels-South-Mobile-Camp.h16059843.Hotel-Information) > > [Historic Spanish Fork Home ](https://www.expedia.ca/Spanish-Fork-Hotels-Newly-Remodeled-Home-15-Min-From-BYUUVU.h91898483.Hotel-Information) > > [Chalets Binghamton](https://www.expedia.ca/Binghamton-Chalets.d6034018-aaChalets.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Townhomes Panama City Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Beach-Townhomes.d8021-aaTownhomes.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [4 Star Hotels in Québec City](https://www.expedia.ca/4Star-Quebec-City-Hotels.s40-0-d180017.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Farmstay Norfolk](https://www.expedia.ca/Norfolk-Agritourism.d2689-aaAgritourism.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotel LaBama](https://www.expedia.ca/Gaborone-Hotels-Hotel-LaBama.h17866923.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Sand Superior Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naxos-Hotels-Golden-Sand-Superior-Villa.h83365975.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Minden](https://www.expedia.ca/Minden-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d8721-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Howard Johnson by Wyndham Kota Kinabalu City Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Kota-Kinabalu-Hotels-Hotel-Shangri-La-Kota-Kinabalu.h4208464.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Gonda](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Gonda-Hotels.s50-0-d3000430280.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Magical Unicorn Hollow /Wineries /Great Meadows Events Fully furnished apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Marshall-Hotels-Private-Unicorn-Hollow-AptWineries-Twilight-PoloMiddleburg.h39532065.Hotel-Information) > > [Isabel Guest Suites & Tours](https://www.expedia.ca/Palapye-Hotels-Isabel-Guest-Suites-Tours.h11480766.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Florence (FLR) to Schwechat (VIE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/flr/vie/florence-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Bujumbura (BJM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/bjm/ottawa-to-bujumbura) > > [Flights from Roatan (RTB) to Isla de Utila (UII)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/rtb/uii/roatan-to-utila) > > [Flights from Comazzo](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/3000705860/flights-from-comazzo) ### Activities ### Packages > [Praia do Lagido](https://www.expedia.ca/Praia-Do-Lagido-Peniche.d6116782.Vacation-Attraction) ### Vacation Rentals ### General > [Visit Friday Harbor](https://www.expedia.ca/Friday-Harbor.dx1248) > > [Visit Surinam](https://www.expedia.ca/Surinam.dx6361027)
