  1. [R8] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 4/5 · US Needs more expeditions: Its a fun game but gets tiring as do most games. The expeditions are super fun and keep me locked in to playing more levels. When there’s a large gap in expeditions, I definitely play less
  2. [R13] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US You have to pay to progress: I really liked it and was doing pretty good but it's these gems that got me stuck! Had I known not to use them except for the upgrades because once you don't have enough you have to pay to get more smh. So yea, it was fun while it lasted but will be uninstalling
  3. [R21] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · US Great game, but spending money feels necessary…: I’ve been playing this game on and off for years, and while I genuinely enjoy it, I keep ending up deleting it for the same reason. Once you reach the harder levels, you’re basically forced to upgrade certain things to progress. The problem is that upgrades require gems, and gems are very difficult to get without spending real money. If you run out

  8. [R12] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · US We need diamonds: I’ve enjoyed playing this game for years even though it is a hard game why did you take getting diamonds away when we would play continuously every day getting diamonds is so hard to get on this game and it was nice getting these diamonds please bring this back it is so hard to upgrade things now it is almost impossible we need our diamonds!
  9. [R6] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · US Mostly good: I have been enjoying this game except for the present prize, where you watch a commercial and get a prize. Lately it plays and then doesn’t give the prize. It is a waste of time and then I have to close out the app to play again.
  10. [R9] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · US Could be better: Game is always freezing!!
  11. [R11] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 4/5 · US I like the game but: As of lately when playing it the app will close out of no where I haven’t been able to play for while since it just closes the app
  12. [R1] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Dumb game: Either you fixed the game! Or close your company. Anyway this is waste of money. You still own me 130-gems scammers.

  13. [R3] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · US Game: They need to find a way to give us more gena instead of spending so much
  14. [R4] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Bad expense: Expensive and built to make players buy coins
  15. [R7] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Every season?!: I am playing this game and I do not like how we have to buy a season ticket for each one. $7 each and there is more than 8 worlds
  16. [R46] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Pay to play.: I like the game. But you are unable upgrade anything without diamonds and unable to win without the upgrades. To get diamond you have to pay real money. If that would change I would keep playing. All the other reviews where the devs are saying you can get diamond by completing level or doing challenges are a lie. I played lots of rounds and only got 10 diamond tops! The videos will n
  17. [R60] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 3/5 · GB Daily Rewards: Why have you changed the daily rewards at least you could get 2diamonds for loyally logging in every day- now diamonds only appear occasionally- surely you value loyalty- please change it back.
  18. [R22] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Costly: A pay to win game for definite
  19. [R28] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Don’t download: I used to play this game and enjoyed a lot. Then I saw an advertisement and I realized how missed to play it, so redownloaded it. New version doesn’t allow you to upgrade your game without making purchases. You have to purchase gems to make upgrades and without upgrading the game stuck and can not go further. If you want to spend your money for a simple game go for it!!!!
  20. [R55] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Pay to Play: all these 5 star reviews are fake. IMPOSSIBLE to win without spending real money on gems and boosts 👎🏽👎🏽
  21. [R63] Dayuse.com 3/5 · US My experience: I love this idea of this app. What’s not good is that my reservation never made it to the hotel and I didn’t have a reservation or room when I went to check in. Fortunately the hotel had a daytime space for me. Please fix this glitch with Super 8 Monee.
  22. [R69] Dayuse.com 3/5 · US Prepaid online-No Reservation: I pre paid online and was sent a confirmation that the hotel confirmed. I get to the hotel and not only was there no reservation, the hotel itself doesn’t accept online payments
  23. [R82] Dayuse.com 1/5 · US Hotel did not honor reservation: USELESS APP. I booked a day room for 8am arrival and received a confirmation from the app. When I arrived at the hotel, they told me no rooms were available. They also told me they only honor these types of requests if they have rooms available at the time. So basically, this app will make a reservation that the hotel may or may not honor. I then called the numbe
  24. [R85] Dayuse.com 1/5 · US Zero Stars: Decided to try this service. Booking was simple and easy. Got my confirmation email. The day of my reservation, the hotel at Courtyard Marriott in Waikiki said they did not have any history of my reservation, the confirmation number I showed them did not come up and that they have been booked for all day for dayuse. I feel like I got scammed by the app and by Marriott. I will be tellin
  25. [R34] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 1/5 · US Keeps crashing!!!: I can’t hardly play a level without it crashing! ATP I’m about to delete this game
  26. [R37] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager 2/5 · US Crashing: Ever since the last update the game continues to crash
  27. [R67] Dayuse.com 1/5 · US Misleading pricing: Be very cautious about hidden taxes and fees. They are listed but buried in the details, so unlike hotels.com, the price you see in big numbers will be much more than posted. Seems silly they don’t just post the final price so we can easily compare apples to apples. Each hotel has their own extra fees.
  28. [R70] Dayuse.com 1/5 · US False advertising: Booked a hotel for $160 (obviously i expected taxes at time of payment) hotel was $300 and a completely different time slot! Not sure if this is the hotel or the app but the app should have a better way to indicate prices and confirmation of time! i felt totally scammed but needed the room really bad.
  29. [R86] Dayuse.com 5/5 · US No tan buena: El valor que indica con el valor que te cobran no coinciden, pésimo servicio
