Despite Booking.com regulation forbidding CAMERAS installed on premises in private areas that are exclusively rented by guests and for common areas inside flats that are actually private if an entire property is rented by a booker, cameras were installed indoors, covering living room, kitchen and 1st floor hallway. It was mentioned that there was an alarm in the living room-kitchen and the hallway of the second floor but NOT mentioned that there are Cameras on those alarms too.
Flat was not cleaned properly and bathroom had old and moldy non hygienic seals
Neighboring dogs barked day & night keeping us awake
It was mentioned in the ad: Enjoy the view: Mountain view & Ocean view: No mountain view, bits of ocean view only when you are on first floor. You have a dump view in the front with rubbish and garbage bags.
Swimming pool was not heated in contrary of what was advertised, it was cold and dirty
Hole was in the wall where an electrical socket was supposed to be.
On pictures, a ceiling fan was supposed to be present but it was not. Bookiply replied that it is written that there is no AC at this time therefore no ceiling fan... An AC is not a Ceiling fan...
We did not stay and left on our second night mainly as we were uncomfortable with privacy issues.
Despite numerous requests to Bookiply and Booking we have not been refunded for our stay.
Bookiply has been unprofessional and of bad faith about trying to fix the problems.
This is definitely not a flat nor a company I would recommend to anyone. It is a very deceptive advertisement.
