"This a great place to stay. Excellent in all aspects. They were more helpful than expedia. My reservation was messaged up on the first stay. They accomadated me and didn't charge me anything extra and made my stay a comfort. Whereas Expedia didn't do anything and plus didn't even pay my full refund when I cancelled my booking within 15 minutes. Shame on expedia. I don't think I will use you anymore for my booking"
