Scam!!!!

The place turned out to be a scam. The building was badly burnt down and the owners did not acknowledge our reservation. Not only that, but we were chased out of the building once we confronted the staff about the scam.

Bad experience

Found it difficult to check in they didn’t have my information for my online booking. The floor was dirty. The bathroom was dirty and not user friendly. I checked out earlier than I booked for and they refused to refund me.

Its a scam, the building is not operational , I was told the guesthouse burned down when I went for check -in, I did not even get a refund , I had to make other arrangements for my accommodation. That is not acceptable.

Great customer services

First, the place was apparently fully booked, but the manager on duty managed to send me to the alternative place, topping up the difference in cost. The refferredto place was super amazing, I liked it.
