I made a reservation here in the late evening, I called Expedia to confirm the reservation as I couldn’t get a hold of the hotel. The agent instructed me to go to hotel and check in if there was a problem doing so they’d refund the cost of stay. I arrive at Sweden House and could not find anyone (front desk) around finally found staff and he couldn’t check me in. So I call Expedia they tell me to initiate a return in the morning, which I did and now I am told a MONTH later Expedia cannnot reach this hotel, yet they are currently selling nights at this hotel ?!? That says A LOT.

I’m still waiting for my refund. I paid ahead but When the desk worker finally came to open the door, the first thing he said to me was “you’re not gonna like the room.” Later he told me “nobody likes the rooms. You should just go somewhere else” then he either feigned or displayed ignorance for how to enter my credit card information, gave up and told me again I should go somewhere else, then he Refused to give me a refund. When I contacted Expedia for a refund, they told me they needed his permission. I asked the desk clerk to please authorize the refund. He told me to go away, locked the door and stopped answering the phone. I’d like my $60 bucks back please. Thank god I didn’t pay ahead for more nights.

There was nothing to like about the property. It was seedy and we felt most unsafe there and in the surrounding area. That view of the room was completely miss leading and the supposed savings was miss leading

Stay only if the other option is the street.

The room looked like a set from a tv show “the worst crack houses in the US” This place is nothing like the photos. The room had holes in the walls, looks like someone beat the hell out of them. Yellow stains on the pillows and black on the sheets. I wouldn’t sit on the bed and I took a BART to the place. Broken mirror, broken furniture. Someone handy removed a shelf to use it as an “ashtray” by the window. There was a magazine rack on the wall that I can only imagine is to be used as a cloth hanger. Didn’t stay long enough to take photos.

Great Rates - Expect Little

As the old saying goes, "You get what you pay for". Room rates are very low, so I shouldn't complain but no toilet paper in the shared bathroom for three days. Lol
