Oh my goodness please don't order from this place. I think they have false reviews on their site also, or just goofy people. I bought this clock from them that I thought was going to be perfect. I was looking for a specific clock which I guess they don't make anymore which is how I ended up on their website. I got this horrible piece of junk that was described so much differently with rave reviews that couldn't possibly say were remotely true.

When I called to get a return shipping label, as I paid 8.00 shipping to start with that I'm pretty sure they advertise as free shipping, I was told I had to ship it back. Another 8,00 for this clock that was 20.00 according to their invoice. I watching my account for the exact amount refund for 3 weeks, when I wrote them back they said we refunded you 16,00 to your account, when I checked sure enough. They helped themselves to another 4.00 for me for no reason. I shipped it back in a box with fragile outside. All instructions included, nothing was wrong with the clock other then it was a piece of junk that they sent me.

This is not right. This has burned me from ordering online.

Thanks for reading. Hope I can save someone from the pain or ordering from this company. They aren't very nice on the phone either.

What an awful place on their website it is described as a crack house haven. It smells, dirty, poop on the bathroom wall, carpet coming apart dirty tub, 10 inch TV, urine in the breezeway, dirty pool, Scary people living there. I was afraid of bedbugs ( I never got close enough to the bed to figure out what was up with it... I'm sure it smelled too.

I checked out after an hour, I wasn't even in the room for 15 mins, but was looking for something else. Since we were out of state on a holiday.

BTW: NEVER USE KAYAK EITHER they did a bait and switch and kept my money. I ended up driving home. Great vacation, 7 hours up and back in one day after 4 hours at the beach. For 165.00 plus food and gas. This is where I was supposed to be staying.

Oh my, I'm not sure why I couldn't find this site before booking with them, but BAIT AND SWITCH IS WHAT IT SHOULD BE CALLED, if I could give a minus one, I would. That is illegal, isn't it. I made one reservation based on THEIR reviews that must be MADE UP, because when I reviewed it on another site it said EEWW! Stay away. So I cancelled that reservation, and made another, which I reviewed prior to making the reservation they did have the best price and it was a holiday weekend so the prices were quite high as it was. But, I've been having a lot of financial troubles for the past 2 years, and haven't been able to take my son on a vacation for 2 years. So we made the reservation for 2 nights at Pensacola beach. At the Best Western Blue Angel, had great reviews on and off their site, and great pictures on many sites. So ok we had a reservation. I got up at 3 am to drive down. I was going to go directly to the beach but something told me to swing by on the way to the beach at the hotel even though it wasn't check in time. They immediately handed me a fax from kayak and said that they had received a phone call, that they made an error and they would have to send me to another hotel. Days Inn in Pensacola 5 miles away. When I called them they said I could cancel the hotel altogether if I wanted, they were giving me an UPGRADE?, after driving 7.5 hours to another state, holiday weekend, I decided to take it. It was getting later, so I decided to go on to the beach and deal with the hotel later, I mean we had an upgrade, right and sometimes the Days Inn are nice, not typically nicer then a Best Western but you never know. I was on vacation right?
After a few hours at the beach, we (my 10 year old son and I) to head on to the hotel, not wanting to be overly burned at the beach. When we got there, we were sorely disappointed. The lobby was DRASCIALLY DIFFERENT then the other hotel, the Best western had a couch set with carpet and floral garden, we had to use the restroom which was great. NOT DAYS INN, it was a sterile small standing area approximately bathroom sized. The breakfast that was supposed to be a full breakfast at the Blue Angel Best Western the Days Inn was going to be cereal and yogurt up to 9am, if we woke up on time, we were planning on sleeping in... but it was a room right? So we checked in anyway, it "was" a room on a holiday. We got up to the room, my son noticed in the bathroom that there were splashes of poop on the wall, the tub was dirty, to room smelled like something? Mold something. The carpet was falling apart, there was a 10 inch TV. My 10 year old said he wasn't going to shower even with sand in the bottom of his bathing suit. Outside I didn't notice when I pulled up was scary... I read a review on that hotels website that said. Eeww! It was described pretty accurately "Crack house Haven". I was afraid my car would be vandalized or bedbugs were a great possibility. So I called the kayak people to get a refund, but I was tired, if I wasn't getting a refund I was going to crash there anyway, I was exhausted. My son was hungry but the fast food in that area was pretty nasty looking, so while I'm on hold, I looked for a new area for him to eat a fast food, while I'm holding for kayak to get whoever needs to authorize a refund, the girl said she'd get someone who said she was from the escalation department. After 35 mins. Another 25 mins, later she said yes, check out from this hotel and they "would" refund the "entire amount". Another 10 mins later I'm on the way home... after I told her I was in the middle of checking out when I was, she said, she called the hotel and because I had checked in and been in the room for an hour they wouldn't refund my money. She told me to check out. She knew I had been on hold for an hour and they are keeping my money. I'm sure the Days Inn re-rented my room, it was Memorial day weekend. So no room, no money, no fun! I got home about 1:30 am after being up at 3am for the trip down to FL. 1st vacation in 2 years
