Edison Luxe Guest House — Hotel in Gauteng

I personally do not recommend. The place is self catering but they telling us to pay for gas to cook. They blamed myself and friends for a couch that was already broken when we arrived, when the manager vijay confronted us about the couch, he got very angry to the point where it sounded and looked as if he wanted to physically fight with my friend Dustin as vijay pointed his finger in my friends face. They made us buy new linen for a lady accident and I've been to countless hotels and guesthouses and they've never made us pay for such, when you book it's added into the costs and I should know because I work in Hospitality. They made us pay for daytime visitors that weren't staying over very late, without a contract stipulating terms and conditions of the establishment. He attempted to kick us out for simply reviewing his establishment honestly, he again got very aggressive, as he raised his voice in a very loud manner. We paid more than 12.5 added in the extra cost for trash service, ironing service, laundry service, visitation service, and cooking services at a self catering establishment. He then accused me of defimation of character and threatened to call his lawyer on me for telling the truth about what happened at the guest house during the duration of our visit .I personally Do not recommend, management is obsessed with cash and not hospitality which is offensive because why are you working with people and in the industry if you do not have the necessary skills when it comes to dealing with your patrons as they are paying you a large sum of money for a good experience, There was no conflict resolution from his side. We genuinely tried to be good guests and listened and interacted very respectfully when vijay spoke. Ontop of all the extra costs, He treated us very badly at the end of our stay. we wanted to leave to a different guesthouse prior at the beginning of our day on the last day of visitation but he convinced us to stay and expected a good review from us instead of working on the constructive criticism that he received to help him make his business better by fixing his mistakes via effective communication and a constructive...

I visited this space in June 2021 and had made prior arrangements with the owner to host a function there, to which he conceded.

Upon arrival, Vijay was frequently in our space, and we couldn’t enjoy the facilities to our own expectations.

He agreed for me to invite a few friends, and subsequently requested a “day visitors fee” for every additional guest, even though they did not stay overnight, an amount that was not advised upfront.

He interfered with conversations, and made my female friends highly uncomfortable by approaching them, and striking up conversations.

On top of that, the host was quite forceful about us leaving “good” reviews of the place and demanded that we do it in his presence before our departure.

We also slept in the room upstairs in the property next to the big house, and please note it has no insulation, so you...

Terrible experience with the guy on airbnb. Cancelled my booking 5 min after making the reservation because he called and made me uncomfortable. They refuse a refund because of a misleading refund policy. He blames airbnb and when they get in touch he refuses the refund. So he offers me all sorts of deals... including keeping the money and coming another time because we are going somewhere now. He then offers 50% refund and decides to change his mind. I feel like I have effectively been scammed out of my money and most reasonable business dont behave this way. Not in my...
