“A vacation with family at this establishment seemingly turned into a nightmare; the expectation of a welcoming hotel dissolved into closed doors and unanswered calls. This experience reportedly left the guests stranded and humiliated, highlighting a stark contrast between promise and reality. Based on reports, proceed with extreme caution.”
