To sum up quickly i would avoid this mans properties at all costs. Unreliable. Untrustworthy. Unclean.
We paid over £500 for three rooms for three nights. Upon arrival in manchester we recieved a phone call to say a man was in one of the rooms we booked and refused to leave. This was communicated as a joint problem. We were given no guarantees over this mans removal, there was no suggestion of a discount, and there was no apology. We travelled to this mans property and despite communicating a set time of arrival we were left waiting for 40 minutes. Again no apology when he finally arrived.
When he did arrive we were shown to a room in one his other properties. He flip flopped between saying he was a police officer and then blatantly denying it. In the space of ten minutes he again flip flopped between saying he could get it sorted within the hour and saying it would be sorted within a few days. His answers varied upon whether we said we would cancel. In fact his whole stance indicated he wanted us to cancel. No thought to the fact we would have to pay over the odds to find new accommodation at such short notice.
