Penny pinching peak season imagination

2.0

I liked the the old work shop/barn that I've stayed in before

− I stayed in the room for a short period of time is an over statement I checked in, unsuccessfully tried connecting to the Internet with an incorrect password provided and within 10 minutes I'd already booked another property and left, alright its my own fault thinking that I'd booked the barn again but surely if theres two different property's they should be advertised separately with different descriptions and photos? You've mentioned about it being peak season the 15th of July is not peak tourist season and if it was im sure that I wouldn't of been able to make a booking and also check in within 30 minutes, you'd think just out of basic curtesy and respect the hosts would refund the booking or atleast 50% there obviously overly busy with this early peak season to care about future bookings especially during the winter months.
