"Horrible experience! There is no actual staff at this place, just a tablet in the lobby. I made a small mistake with my reservation, but there was nobody available to help me fix it. I contacted the property, and they told me to request a refund through Expedia. I followed their instructions, but they refused to approve the refund anyway. Why tell me to contact Expedia if you have no intention of helping? I understand the reservation was non-refundable, but the complete lack of customer service...
