They cancelled my booking without informing me. I got to the Mitel after driving 51/2 hours to be calmly told they had cancelled my booking and I would get a refund. I went to another motel and found that they had not cancelled my booking and I had no refund! Thieves and cheats!

I stayed a single night and felt everything was broken or had an issue, except the air con. Tv remote broken in half and batteries crushed. Shower head holes calcified over so badly all water defied gravity. Only one light worked and it constantly flickered. Next time I'll definitely try another place.
