Never book this place

I came late for check in and missed read the instructions and didn’t even get to stay. No help was offered. When I came in the following day to check in I was told they put my reservation as a no show and I could no longer check in even though I still had another night booked. I have called the third party to settle the matter but nothing has been resolved. Let alone the property don’t even pick their phone up.
