I paid for the parking space, but during my stay, the parking space was occupied by other cars. I was asked to park anywhere and be ready to move the car at any time. I received a call to move the car twice, once when my family and I were having dinner outside! The contact person sent me an email saying that it was parked in the visitor parking space, but did not tell me where it was. The reception staff also said that there was no visitor parking space in this building. I could only park in a random parking space and wait for your news, but there was no solution. I hope you can give me a satisfactory result! Give me back the parking fee! Because of this reason, I did not enjoy a relaxing vacation! ##### Yumei Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Burckin Suleymaniye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Burckin-Suleymaniye.h32889671.Hotel-Information) > - [Melbourne City Apartment Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Adina-Apartment-Hotel-West-Melbourne.h49245786.Hotel-Information) > - [Nomads St Kilda Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Base-Backpackers-Melbourne-Hostel.h1690276.Hotel-Information) > - [Craig's Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballarat-Hotels-Craigs-Royal-Hotel.h6375093.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sebel Melbourne Docklands Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Sebel-Melbourne-Docklands.h6819425.Hotel-Information) > - [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Edinburgh and Lothian](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-And-Lothian-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d178257-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotel Chadstone Melbourne MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Hotel-Chadstone-Melbourne.h33764279.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Leeming Bar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeming-Bar-Hotels.d6145118.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Gibraltar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gibraltar-Hotels.d1325.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Crown Promenade Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crown-Promenade.h2858735.Hotel-Information) > - [St Kilda Accommodation - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-St-Kilda-Accommodation.h43007149.Hotel-Information) > - [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > - [The Motley Hotel Richmond, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Motley-Hotel-Richmond.h89155523.Hotel-Information) > - [Park Inn By Radisson Melbourne Carlton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Hotel.h40162080.Hotel-Information) > - [Lanson Place Parliament Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Lanson-Place-Parliament-Gardens.h103799356.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Fiumicino (FCO) to Beijing (PEK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/fco/pek/rome-to-beijing) ### Cars > - [Car hire in Vukovar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Vukovar.d6139308.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities ### Packages > - [San Blas Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Blas-Islands.d6024116.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palace-Of-The-Dukes-Of-Burgundy-Dijon-Centre-Ville.d6107880.Attraction) > - [Christ Church College](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christ-Church-College-Oxford-City-Centre.d6092231.Attraction) ### General > - [Visit Santry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Santry.dx179025) ---
