House not the same as advertised. Owners had move to a slum from what looked pleasant some time ago
Probably the worst rental accommodation in 50 years of global travel I have ever stayed in. Your non-refundable policy is entirely inappropriate consider that it was the wrong property. I stayed 3 of 8 nights. I could not take my wife there. In SA under the Consumer Protection Act you would be obliged to refund me for the 4 nights I cancelled.
Your whole system if flawed and unfair. No recommendations from me to use Stayz - quite the contrary
