Really bad experience checking in and it seems like they have a mess with how they do things. I booked for my families member. I have to call them because , no reception was there. Wi-Fi in room doesn't work properly. I thought the parking lot was for free ( it was written to facilities ) , but at the check out they asked for money. i will not recommend this Airbnb to nobody
