      They stole two paid nights from me. Never got a refund. Inept Management. Terrible customer Service.

      So I am using Yuplon to book two nights with them. Since Feb 2017 I had to stalk them for a reservation, they confirmed it over the phone, but never to my email. When I called back they said there was no space left and...More

      Not yet living up to its great potential. A sad reminder when management is inept.

      Since a long and delightful visit early in 2016, I have followed developments since new owners took charge mid-year 2016. More recent reviews have been quite unfavorable: worst hotel, dump ... sort of comments. I thought, to give a newer review, I would stay a...More
