First let me start by stating I’m a Super Host and have a listing in Tampa Florida, USA. So my review is completely legitimate. I had high concerns reserving the MBS hotel through this listing because I started to feel like it was too good to be true. Then the day before I arrived I was asked by Lina to provide my passport. I immediately contacted Air bnb. They assured me I could give my passport Information at the hotel when I arrived. Upon arrival (which was delayed due to airport delays)
I was met by a man who spoke little English.. I quickly realized as we “both” approached the counter that he was a member of the hotel. My assumption is that he owns a share or hotel stay when he wants at a discounted price which is then carried over to the guest who books this through Air Bnb. The entire process at the desk took around 20 minutes BUT would have been a lot quicker had I already provided my passport information. 🥴 Unfortunately, I simply didn’t feel comfortable. However, I can assure you everything is legit. We were given keys, and could freely utilize the facilities with no problems!
The hotel is remarkably beautiful, the pool was everything and more!! Plenty of IG photos were taken. My absolutely only gripe was the firmness of the bed!! The first night my back was completely torn up! Ugh!! The second night I made a body cushion to lay on with their pillows which were super soft and luxurious!!! However, I still woke up with a sore back, just less sore and it wasn’t until our next hotel which was cheaper that I got a better nights sleep!!
Thank you Lina and group for your easy stream lined process! If I’m ever back I’ll definitely stay again! Thank you for your patience!
