"Neither the hosts nor Expedia gave us no informayion at all even though we emailed twice. The address given to us by Expedia was incorrect. We rang the bell at no.26 to be told we were staying at no 12. Luckily our Swedish driver helped us with communication and we all went to no 12. Who told us we were not actually in the building but at the back down an alleyway. Nor what we needed after a 24 hour flight from Australia. "
