I have contacted Expedia and asked that they return my money as this hotel is completely fraudulent. They have changed their name so many times and the pictures in the listing are not of the “hotel”. We actually finally found this “hotel” but it didn’t have the same name and they messed up my reservation so my family was stranded on with nowhere to stay. I have contacted Expedia and asked that they return my money as this hotel is completely fraudulent. They have changed their name so many times that they don’t even know the name and the pictures in the listing are not of the hotel. We actually found a hotel but it didn’t have the same name and they said they did not have a room even though I had reserved through Expedia and prepaid for two nights. Expedia is reviewing my claim and I’m confident they will return my money as this hotel is a fraud. The hotel is also a TOTAL DUMP with a bunch of dope smoking sketchy people. Don’t reserve here and less you want to lose your money, PS you won’t find this hotel anyway because it doesn’t go by this name! Expedia remove this listing from your site! Sincerely a long time Expedia customer
