The most incredibly awful company I've ever dealt with I had a confirmed reservation email which said the instructions to get the keys would be sent within 5 days before the reservation. Reservation was for next day, so I called their office which is in eastern Europe, ignore the local US number on their website, it's misleading. My reservation was again confirmed, I was told I'd get the instructions on how to get the keys for the place later that day. Just before midnight, I received a cancellation email saying the reservation has been cancelled! Called them up this morning and they tell me my payment was declined, and all apartments are now booked! My credit card is fine, my credit card company didn't contact me to let me know there was an attempted charge on my account which they blocked which would be the only explanation given they process payments in eastern Europe. Seems like they had no availability for this 'Confirmed Reservation' and decided to cancel for a make believe payment processing issue. Any self respecting company would contact the customer before cancelling if there was a payment processing issue. Please, please stay as far away from this company as you can, literally the worst, most misleading scam artists I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Will be monitoring my credit card activity closely as I see some unauthorized charges in my future after giving these people my details... Avoid like the plague.

UNDISCLOSED $120 CLEANING FEE AND NO CANCELLATIONS ALLOWED Ginosi Apartments showed up as the best Seattle hotel rate on Expedia at $69 dollars per night. I booked a 2 night reservation and the next day I discovered that I had been billed $282. The reason provided was an undisclosed $120 cleaning deposit, which more than doubled the nightly rate. If Ginosi Apartments wants to charge $140 per night, they are welcome to do so. But ... Spoofing a lower rate, and concealing an exorbitant cleaning deposit in the fine print, while not allowing cancellations, demonstrates a very obvious desire to deceive. This business can't be trusted and I would caution any potential customers to avoid using a card that does not have fraud prevention. When they claim that the cleaning fee is disclosed in the "terms and conditions" fine print of the rental agreement, it may provide legal cover, but it does not conceal the intentional misrepresentation their rates, an intent that their "no cancellations" policy clearly demonstrates. ---------------------- Reply to Sean, Saying you are "sorry" and then blaming me for not finding a ridiculous $120 cleaning charge hidden in the terms and conditions is not an apology. Your no-cancellations policy combined with the hidden fee is a clear indication of your intent. If apartments have needs beyond hotel rooms then be honest and RAISE YOUR RENTAL RATES.

Horrible Experience. ***Checking-In*** When I got to the address that was given to me during booking the hotel/apartment (after driving 9hours), there was no clear explanation that I had to go down to check in at another office. If it weren't for the gentleman running the downstairs bar I would have been left in LA with no room at 12AM. So I finally figured out how to check-in through outside codes and getting buzzed in (there is no office that you can just walk into) after all this I get hit with major hidden FEES!!! ***Hidden Fees*** I booked the room through Hotels.com and not once was the hidden "cleaning fee" of $120. explained to me. Not until time of check in. That fee should be included in the booking reservation, meaning instead of advertising $130 a night it should be $250 a night so people know exactly what they are paying. Also, they charged me $20 a night for parking but when I got to the parking lot they were charging only $10 (overnight).... So my $320 reservation easily added up to $500 (two nights).... all the codes that were given to me to get in the building were wrong, I had to wait another 30mins to get in (myself by calling with instructions given to me over the phone as there is no one the site to help). ***Service*** Not to mention when it was time to check out (which clearly stated 11am) 10am house keeping was nocking at my door. Of course like any other hotel I said not ready, no big deal I thought.... Until the manager and house keeper showed up at 10:55 and stood out side the door hovering, making sure that my family and I were out by exactly 11:am as if we did something wrong. I asked if I could please have an additional 10-15mins to gather my stuff and I was told NO! With that being said the manager and housekeeper didn't even know any of the codes to get into room. So I had to help them get into the room they just kicked me out of! *Location- Great. *Rooms- Beautiful. *Checking in- Horrible and Confusing *Customer Service- The worst I've ever experienced. *Company/Price- Will trick you into thinking your getting a good deal but will charge you hidden fees anyway they can!

Worst stay of my life Walked into my room and found a man and woman who just had sex on my bed I payed for. Apparently they were all booked that night so I couldn't switch to a new room. I shared the futon with another 30 year old man.The next day they had some available so when I went to go switch rooms, the guy I saw in my room the night before turned out to be an employee. It took almost two weeks to get anything done about it. They offered me 80$ gift card to (external reference), and 10% off my next stay. Of course I will never stay again and I hope nobody else does either. I'm disgusted in so many ways. DO NOT STAY AT A GINOSI APARTMENT!
