We had a very disappointing and frustrating stay at this hotel. Here are just some of the serious issues we encountered: - There was a water outage for several hours on three separate days. - When we complained that there was no water and we couldn’t flush the toilet, the manager mocked us and laughed at the situation. - The hotel manager even suggested we shower using a bucket. - The staff treated us with disrespect and indifference throughout. - The beds were terrible — old, uncomfortable spring mattresses. - The air conditioner was locked and couldn’t be set below 24°C. - The staff were unhelpful. Most importantly, we were forced to leave the hotel a day early because, once again, there was no running water, and we simply couldn’t take it anymore. We paid for that night and didn’t even use it. We asked the hotel manager for a refund, and he insisted that Booking.com is responsible, since the booking was made through them.

Asked along the way.
What makes Lagou Raxi different from traditional hotel wedding venues?+
