Guest Reviews

• Anonymous (1/5): This location does not exist anymore -
• M (1/5): Terrible last minute cancellation by owner - Nothing. When I arrived and couldn't find the property, I called the owner to ask where to go. She told me that she took the property off booking.com and that it was not a rental property anymore. I had paid in full via booking.com and ended up having to find another place. Booking.com refunded me but did not compensate me for the difference in price I had to pay for new accomodation which was very expensive last minute. I will not use booking.com again as this is my second experience of them not vetting their business partners and me having to find new accomodation.
• Guri (1/5): Totally unsatisfied and angry for losing my money. - The property does not exist. It is a scam. I was stranded and had to book accommodation elsewhere. I want my money back. Please remove this provider from Booking.com. There were three of us stuck at this bogus place. The property does not exist. I lost my money to this scam on Booking.com.
• Alex (1/5): There Was no stay ! Property is a scam !! - See below. The property exists but is inaccessible as the owner has been evicted over a month ago but booking.com is still advertising the site and i - and other too, no doubt - have paid for nothing !!

• Singh (1/5): Worst, scam, don’t go. - She’s running a scam she takes the booking she doesn’t pickup your call I waited 3 hours outside her building there is no house number mention. If you want to sleep on the road please book this room otherwise stay away from this room.
• David (7/5): Good -
• Keziah (6/5): Pleasant -
• Walimuni (4/5): Bad experience! - I had a disappointing experience during my stay. I stepped out of the room for a second and realized the door lock wouldn’t open from the outside. It seems there’s an issue with the lock. I was in the middle of moving and got locked out with all my belongings inside the room. I called the landlord to ask her to unlock the door for me, but she said she wasn’t convinced by what I said. She then told me she was far away and that I would have to wait more than an hour for her to come. I was really upset, but I waited. After an hour, I called her again to ask when she would arrive, and she mentioned there was a hidden key I could use. I asked why she didn’t tell me this earlier, but she ended the call. After another 30 minutes, she finally arrived, unlocked the door, and placed the key in the key safe. I’m really upset about the whole situation, and she wasn’t helpful at all. Also, beware that there is another door that opens into the hallway where the bathroom is, and it has no lock. Even the bathroom itself doesn’t have a lock. The light switch turns on all the lights in the room, but the two bulbs directly above the bed were flickering constantly. The only good thing is that the room is spacious, and the bathroom is large. They do have a washing machine and dryer, but that’s about it. P.S. This was in response to the host’s reply. I got locked out on the 19th of September, even though my checkout date was the 20th of September. The host is trying to convince that I got locked out after my checkout time. I had requested the host to keep my luggage for 3 more hours after checkout on the 20th, but she later replied that she couldn’t. I had no issue with this, as she had informed me, so I moved my stuff into a storage space on the 19th. That’s when the incident occurred.
• Alex (1/5): Bad -
• Janina (8/5): Very good - Chidi was very welcoming and helpful. The room was clean and I felt comfortable, I would stay here again.
• Rae (7/5): Lovely accommodation with a great host. - The host "Chidi" was so friendly and welcoming. The accommodation was lovely, clean and spacious. We had everything we needed for our short stay. Very affordable accommodation with free parking and it's only a 10min walk to town. We really enjoyed it here 😊 There was no locks on the bedroom and bathroom doors, which some people may be uncomfortable with, however Chidi does respect your privacy, so it wasn't a problem for us.
• Thomas (8/5): Good night sleep in a comfy bed with peace and quiet - Nicely presented room with comfortable bed and chair, contact with the owner was pleasant and helpful, good TV options on Fire Stick. Felt a little uncomfortable that there was no lock on the inner door through to family home entrance and Bathroom.
• Jean (1/5): Would not recommend. Had to leave as I couldn’t sleep. - It wasn’t far to walk into Woking . There was no consideration for the fact the living room is directly above the guest bedroom. The family talked very loud, banged around, laughed continuously loud and it prevented me from sleeping. Guests expect to have peace and quiet on their stay. If this can’t be offered then don’t rent a room out. Simple Having no lock on the door of the bathroom is also an issue.
• Murtaza (5/5): Passable - It doesn’t meet the description. There were no toilet rolls, coffee machine. Only one bed was available.
• Walis (9/5): I will make it my 1st choice on returning .everything spotless - Good location10 minutes into town ,on a room only basis ,Chedi great hostess. Drink and biscuits on arrival , had a 6 day stay ,would be my first choice when I return. Go to Wenzels for a good breakfast. Just remember this is not 5 star you are in the family home be part of it .Parking right outside a big bonus in a town like this. I personally had a great stay ,but may not suit everyone .
