Riona Home Stay Uzanbazar

The way owner has convinced me to cancel the booking from Booking.com & tactfully revised the room rate & got booked in personal account (Not via booking.com). A hall is divided by some plywood board & posted online as a 2 BHK apartment.

Restriction 1 :- Shoes cant keep inside the room, if somehow shoes found inside the room , owner appears somehow & ask to keep outside. Restriction 2:- After 11 PM main gate closed , if you late by 10 minutes owner reminds all the rules made by him & keep me awaited outside the gate till he finishes his dinner . Interestingly, he always has his dinner during that point of time only. Restriction 3:- Room cant be locked as per owner its a 2 BHK & he may rent another room to another customer. My AC room cant be locked as the lock is a simple iron rod (Photo attached)

Unhygienic unhygienic unhygienic and smelling. Please don't go to the toilet it's so so so unhygienic. Even public toilets are cleaner than this. I came all the way from kerala was very tired and exhausted and when I entered the property I was really gone mad looking at the condition. Booking.com should remove this property from the listing.

Nothing

1. The name “Riona Homestay” does not exist. It is 'Kobitaloi Homestay', located in a slum-like neighborhood. The property is listed under different names on various websites, raising doubts about proper registration and transparency. 2. When a homestay is listed on a booking website, the facilities mentioned should be carefully verified. Booking platforms do not automatically add “AC room with kitchen and private washroom.” In this case, the facilities advertised did not match what was actually provided. A room with AC, a Kitchen, and a private bathroom was pre-booked. However, he refused to provide an AC room with a kitchen and gave a non-AC room. 3. There is no private bathroom; the common bathroom was located at the end of a very narrow corridor. False informations are given in the website. 4. Basic courtesy was also lacking. Entering a guest’s room without knocking is unacceptable. Entering in a vest and shorts is unprofessional behavior. 5. There is no billing system. Tax was charged, but no proper printed bill or valid invoice was provided. After multiple calls, the owner simply wrote the amount by hand on a torn plain white paper and gave it to me. 6. During a three-night stay, room service was provided only once. 7. Guests were instructed to remove their shoes on the stairs before entering the corridor. If such rules exist, they should be clearly mentioned in the online listing. 8. The kitchen was dusty, and the basin pipe was clogged. All utensils were cleaned before and after use, yet instead of fixing maintenance issues, the owner chose to lecture the guest. Previous negative reviews written by German guests are all true. In response to genuine complaints, the owner tends to post defensive or manipulated replies rather than accepting responsibility and even falsely blames guests who provide honest reviews. I stayed there from 13–16 Feb, and the owner is claiming that I cancelled the booking. Don't ruin your days staying there. He is a fraud.

Practically nothing.

אמל"ק לישראלים - שומר נפשו ירחק, זאת נוכלות מלוכלכת תרתי משמע. עדיף לכם לישון אצל הומלס בתחנה מרכזית בתל אביב ולא כאן. First of all the name 'Riona Homestay' doesn't exist in Google, and this is the second time I encounter a 'front' name and I later understood it for the guest not to see the location exactly on the map. So the real name of this place is Kobitaloi homestay, and is located in a slams neighborhood, I took a taxi to a pin location given to me by the manager, and from there he took me on a motorbike through narrow streets of sewage till we reached the place. There the whole entrance was dark, no reception, and he led me directly up a narrow entry and the stairs to a room without AC and private bathroom although I pre-booked it with. Then he said, show it to me on the app, so I later found the list of booked amenities and showed him and he replied that for him it says otherwise and out of his good kindness he will let me stay in the AC room. Now that AC room was tiny, not as described in the add, NO private bathroom, in fact the bathroom was in the end of a very narrow corridor, there I found a very dirty toilet, and no hot water for the shower, in fact there was only 1 water valve to the shower. When I got up early in the morning to catch a ride I found out there are no water in the toilet, and no water in the sink - so I couldn't wash the toilet after use and I couldn't wash my face. Calling the manager didn't help as no one answered the calls. Finally I left the place without washing myself in any way and luckily the dad was there to open the main gate to release me out of that nightmare. If you fancy nightmares - this is the place for you, otherwise stay away.

Very good host.They were hospitable. Don't find any difficulty during our stay.

A bit warmer place if you are taking non AC room during summer.
