This property should be de-listed for accommodation until repairs are made to fix a leak in the ceiling that contributes to a disgusting odor that greets the guests upon entry to the apartment. It can only be described as a foul combination of fish and mould. We contacted the property about the active leak in the ceiling (right above the bed in the master bedroom and nothing was done. There are several stains on the ceiling in the master bedroom from this leak which has clearly been ongoing for quite some time as the damage is fairly extensive, including bubbling of the drywall just inside the bedroom door. The property managers were incredibly unhelpful and have now tried to charge us for a broken glass that was left in the cupboard by either their cleaning staff or the previous visitors. The least of our issue was the fact that this property was listed as a "park view" when it in fact faces an apartment across the street with no park in sight. I want my money back from this property as no one should be staying in an apartment with such obvious maintenance issues.

A group of 2 adults and 2 kids stayed here back in June for 3 nights. One of the kids had trouble with his ears from the plane and it ended up bleeding on the pillow one night. By the time I realized it, it was already dried in. They kept $45 of our $200 deposit even after I explained what happened. I wish I had of read the other reviews before booking as it seems this is a common theme for this company.

I am writing again regarding my experience with GlobalStays at 98 Lillian St in Toronto. I received a response from GlobalStays repeating that I was at fault for staying beyond checkout and for damage to their property from smoking. Once again, I paid extra for a late checkout and was still harassed. Also, I don’t smoke and there is absolutely no smoke damage to the apartment. This is nothing but fraud. I would also like to add that they contacted me for a credit card on our check in date and a photograph with my passport. They wanted my credit card so they could perpetrate this fraud. It is actually completely illegal for GlobalStays to have asked me for a credit card as I had booked the stay and paid for the stay with Vrbo.

While the site itself and the apartment was beautiful, the service is just below anything I have ever experienced.
I stayed in 2 Allendale. The instructions for the self check aka scavenger hunt for the key under to the degree of worthless. It took 3 people 40 minutes to find the lockbox. We also encountered not being able to go back into the parking garage where our car was located.
Once gotten to the key of the first apartment we booked, it turned out the other colleagues were in a different location of Global stay, which defeated the entire purpose of booking Global Stay in first place.

The self checkout instructions seemed clear. Leave no later Talan 11am, leave key on kitchen table.
Problem was that the key fob is needed to get the elevator into the underground parking garage, as the place comes with parking. Fortunately one of the residents was able to help.

Durning the journey we called/texted the numbers on the self checkin instructions with no one getting back until an entire day after. So completely worthless.
Won’t stay there again.

I rented their place in Toronto on yonge st for a concert and had the same problem of them trying to keep my deposit and charge me money for an old scratched floor and pillow case with drools. This is a scam. They asked for a pic of me holding my ID and passport which should’ve been a big red flag. I’m now reading the reviews and see that they have “copy and pasted” this scam tactic on to other guest as well. When I called PayPal to get refunded, I was told that paypal is aware of this fraudulent company.

I encourage everyone who has been scammed to file a report with the Canadian government. Type into google “file fraudulent business practice Canada”

These guys are COMPLETE SCAMMERS!!! DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM! They do not have anywhere in the description about their bizzare check in process. They ask for $200 security deposit and also to send picture of your license, etc. Then they ask you to meet a representative of theirs on a side of a road who was over 45 minutes late. Then this representative takes you to the building and the whole interaction is just weird. He refused to let us take our own stuff by ourselves upstairs and said there would be less questions from reception. Absolutely bizzare!!!! Stayyyy awayyyyyyyy

DO NOT STAY HERE-THEY DO NOT REFUND FULL DEPOSIT

My best friend and I rented a condo for a night to see a concert in Toronto. We did not eat in the room or use it for any other purpose than sleeping. Ultimately we slept there a total of 6 hours. When it came to getting the deposit back, they sent me a photo of a years old pillow with drool marks all over it and said they were charging $30 for the pillow. There is absolutely no way either of us did that over a 6 hour sleep, plus the pillow cases had covers on them. When I complained and informed them I would be disputing the charges with my bank, they reversed the balance of my deposit $200 balance and sent me photos of soiled sheets! So Monday I have my call with the bank and I will be sharing the metadata of the photos with them as well. Reading other reviews it's apparent they do this with all visitors.

Worst place I have ever stayed. The condo was so hot and advertises air conditioning, but the The air conditioning was not working at all and when we contacted management, they blamed it on us not knowing how to use a thermostat, which is absolutely ridiculous. I came here for medical tests and now I’ve had to go find somewhere else to stay because they refuse to refund me or fix the air conditioning which we gave them our to do. They did say they came and did it was the same and there was absolutely no air conditioning coming out of the vent the temperature in the tiny tiny condo 24 for over hours and hours they are lovely when you check in but as soon as you’re there, they don’t care , as soon as they have your money, they don’t care about you at all

First thing one star is to many for this company on the contract it states that you would receive your deposit back in 7 days well that's not true and they charged me a assessment fee with out notice or warning they lied about the number of bedrooms and I still have not received my deposit 16 days after checkout and you have to take your trash with you this should be written on every trash can and all through out the house to make it easier for the guests instead of sending this information the day before checkout . We was using the trash can outside the whole time and had to get the bags out nasty and uncalled for .I want my money

Booked a place in Hamilton, Canada for a day through Booking. Few days before the stay, GLOBALSTAY requested that I send my passport and a selfie via email, which I declined due to concerns about their privacy policy. They also asked for 200 CAD security deposit to be sent to a PayPal account - another red flag because of no deposit protection. Although they said these were "mentioned" in their imprint, they were not explicit. I didn't feel comfortable sending personal details to an unfamiliar company email nor the deposit. At the end they didn't provide check-in instructions, had to book an Airbnb.

We stayed in an apt through Global Stay in Toronto. Never again will we book through this company. First, they claimed we were a “no show”. Not true. Second, they claimed we “broke coffee pot and charged us $75. I believe this is a scam operation.

GlobalStay is a fraudulent company that is being run on Booking.Com.

We booked the room with b.com 2 months prior to the trip. Then, they suddenly sent us a message for more instructions and payments only 2 days before the arrival date that we have to pay extras when we can't cancel the trip or the booking anymore. Don't bet on it.

We rented the "full house" they have advertised in Port Elgin. Anyways, it's advertised as entire house. When we get there's it's actually a basement unit. We get dirty looks from all the neighbours upon arrival for some reason. Obviously there's been previous guests partying here upsetting neighbours. Had to pay $1000 deposit on a $300 stay. Then we got charged $300 for two dirty towels we left ( just so you know we washed all towels in the washer and dryer before we left so any dirt on the towels was due to the ineffective washer they installed in the unit). Was told we'd have the whole place to ourselves but we had guests upstairs that kept us up all night. They weren't loud it's just the construction is so bad that a casual conversation sounds like a raging party. Very misleading company. I feel bad for the young guy they have maning the phones, I'm sure he just gets yelled at all day. Needless to say, I don't recommend you stay here. The saddest part? We're in a housing crisis and this company decides it's a great idea to buy up single family homes to scan people out of their money instead of giving it to a productive family. Why is this allowed. Search " Global Stay Saugeen shores Expedia" of you want to checkout the listing for yourself.

GlobalStay is a fraudulent company that is being run on Booking.Com. Booking.com do not care about running these scams on their site anymore. Tried to check in to a villa in Bali using GLOBALSTAY. We were 3 hours from arriving, they told me to upload passport details and a deposit using Paypal. I did this because we were attending a wedding. I booked this accommodation 6 months in advance. They told me they were giving me instructions to enter the property in 10 mins. They never responded using WhatsApp. Then they told me to cancel my booking. It is a clear fraud and scam. Although, I feel like I should have searched on Google, I stupidly trusted booking.com. My husband was scammed using booking.com for rental car in the UK. It is a sad statement that the whole internet cannot be trusted. In the future, I will have to do a google search for everything and type in the word fraud. Hope this stops other people from being scammed and that the police/ investigators stop these people.

Would have grabbed a hotel room if I could have found one with 3 beds. Anyhow, the apartment looked nice, lots of space, more than we needed for the night, but had 3 beds. Said it had air conditioning, but I didn’t. Western Canada under a heat wave, a/c was a must, wouldn’t have rented it otherwise. It was +31 Celsius with a light hot breeze. Inside the apartment was the same but no breeze. Still the same in the morning. Contacted global stay to see about the a/c, but they gave me some crap line about it having air “conditioning” which in their world means an air exchanger. If the air is just as hot inside as out, exchanging the air does jack. They likely consider a window an air “conditioner” too. Thought a partial refund would be fair but nope, they didn’t see it that way. Will attempt to dispute my credit card charge, but not expecting anyone to side with me. Will never ever use hotels.com or global stay ever again.

I recently rented a property from Globalstay Team at 355 Cranbrook Square SE, Calgary, AB, and I am extremely disappointed with the experience.

Firstly, the property was advertised as having functioning AC, but upon arrival, the AC was not working, making it very uncomfortable during the hot summer days. Additionally, the WiFi was intermittent and unreliable, which made working from home a significant challenge.

The house lacked sufficient curtains to block the light at night. This was particularly inconvenient since the sun sets around 11 PM during the summer, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

Upon checkout, I was charged $635 CAD for excessive wall damage, despite the walls not being in perfect condition when I arrived. Most of the pictures provided as evidence merely showed normal wear and tear, which is expected in any property. Additionally, many of the pictures did not clearly indicate where they were taken from within the unit. It was also very suspicious that the total amount of the claimed damages conveniently added up to the exact value of my security deposit.

As someone who has traveled to Calgary for the past 10 years and rented different houses, I have never experienced anything like this. It seems that Globalstay Team is maintaining their property at the tenants' expense, which I find extremely disrespectful and incorrect.

Overall, I would not recommend renting from Globalstay Team due to their unfair practices and the poor condition of their property.

Absolutely terrible experience. The check in is incredibly inconvenient and they make you take a selfie with your ID and email it to them… I’ve never been treated more like a criminal in my life. Will never use this again.

I recently had a terrible experience with GlobalStay in Toronto.This company is a complete fraud, and I urge everyone to avoid booking with them.

False Charges: After my stay, they unfairly deducted money from my security deposit, claiming it was for the disposal of a garbage bag supposedly left behind. This is a blatant lie. They are making up charges to keep the deposit money.

Misleading Advertisement: The apartment was nothing like what they advertised. It was dirty, uncomfortable, and in poor condition. This was far from the clean and comfortable space they promised.

Poor Customer Service: When I tried to address the false charges and get my full deposit back, their response was unsatisfactory and dismissive. They have shown no interest in resolving the issue or being honest with their customers.

Hassle at Check-In: The check-in process was a hassle. They required pictures of everyone’s ID, which was inconvenient and intrusive.

GlobalStay is a fraudulent company that looks for ways to keep your deposit money by fabricating lies. Their properties are not as advertised, and their customer service is terrible.

DO NOT BOOK WITH GLOBALSTAY. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY. Save yourself the headache and book elsewhere.

I would rather give a downtown junkie my information before these people.

Never even got to check in. We arrived at the location and there was 0 staff to help. I called the number listed on the booking and got jerked around for 3+ hours being hung up on and lied too. They kept my $200 damage deposit EVEN THOUGH WE NEVER GOT TO CHECK IN. They wanted pictures of everyone’s ID that was going to attend. Fast forward 2 weeks later and I am the victim of fraud.

So not only did I not get to stay, they kept the money for the room, the deposit & used my ID for fraudulent purposes.
