"Although my expedia reservation clearly stated 'room', what was available for me was a tent (containing two beds). I arrived too late to go elsewhere. It was disconcerting to hear drunk male tourists stumbling around the tent when I was trying to sleep without being able to lock the door (zipper).

"I have hot flashes so it was important to have central air. It was not clear from the listing that there was no central air just a tiny unit in one bedroom that did little to cool the apartment. The agent was rude and very unhelpful- My son and I left the property after just 2 days- We had paid for a full 5 day stay, but she refused to reimburse any part of the money paid.
