Our stay at Downtown Guesthouse was complex. The TL;DR/ short version: don’t expect any support if you have trouble checking in, or any other issues. The place is an okay place to stay, at best - 4 of 10 stars. Shout out to housekeeping for clean room and sheets.
Management and hosts are non-existent. Make sure you get an emailed code sent to you before arrival:
-- Before the “host” can respond to this review, let me point out, they trash anyone who writes this type of review as if it is the guest's fault they did not receive a code. Since the automated system through Expedia must be flawless, the guest is lying when they say they did not receive it. (See reviews from March 12 and March 6, 2024.)
I called the property contact. I messaged via Expedia, I texted. Expedia is not the organization that never responded to me, a stranded traveler outside their establishment. That non-response rests squarely on the shoulders of Floki and Delve - the apparent hosts. I Literally never heard a word from them- hello/goodbye/ sorry/ go to hell. Nothing.
-- Our overall stay was fine. I mean it is essentially a bed and a bathroom. “Guesthouse” implies you are a guest. And as a guest, I expected some form of “host”, Please know. There is no host here. Even Hostels have more support for travelers than this “guesthouse “
I would say the best part about the “Guesthouse” was that I could discern no bedbugs with my standard search.
