"They were unaware that I had booked the room and were going to cancel my reservation. Being in a foreign country this would have left me in a very unsafe scenario. The staff eventually agreed to let us stay and prepared the room. They made us breakfast the following day which was delicious. The room did not have a garbage and no soap was available at the time of check in. Overall would not go back given the cost of the room."
