  SCAM!!!!! AVOID!!! Save yourself the trouble

  08 Nov 2025

  AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. THIS PROPERTY IS A COMPLETE SCAM.I arrived at the homestay around 10 AM. Since check-in wasn’t until 2 PM, I dropped my bag and went out to explore. When I returned to check in, I was suddenly told there were no rooms left and that they were fully booked.I showed my confirmed reservation but the rude older man running the place, (likely the owner) insisted my room had already been given away. His excuses were all over the place. First, he claimed “many people don’t show up,” which made zero sense considering I had literally left my bag there earlier that morning. Then he said it was because I hadn’t paid yet, even though I had submitted my credit card details and the confirmation clearly stated I would be charged for a no-show or cancellation.He kept insisting that I cancel the booking so he wouldn’t have to do it on his end but cancelling it myself meant I would still be charged, so I told him to cancel it from his side instead.Rather than honouring my reservation, he tried to push me into booking a more expensive two-bedroom room that had “just become available.” When I questioned how this was acceptable, he became dismissive, switched off the lights, and was practically closing the door on me.To make matters worse, the property is extremely hard to find, poorly signposted and tucked deep inside an alleyway.This entire experience was a complete waste of time and energy. The behaviour was unprofessional, rude, and blatantly dishonest.Save yourself the trouble and avoid this property entirely. There are far better options nearby.
