Criticism to BBB Situation # 91061406
Resort was TERRIBLE!!! The issues using the space were: NO DOORKNOB ABOUT THE DOOR ONLY A LARGE HOLE WHERE THE DOORKNOB OUGHT TO BE. We talked to the director about that who said he'd show up and have a look at it which he did and his reply was: yes, you're correct there's no doorknob... Bath experienced chips in tub and moldly caulking, filthy underneath mattress (we'd to determine beneath the sleep to take out childs sleep, space was filthy and wasn't washed, required an area for 3 people what we got was a queensize bed along with a take out childis trundle bed. We'd to get the queen sized bed and move it from the wall and put the nightstand within the wardrobe simply to get the childs trundle bed out. They promoted free complimentary parking on-site. Whenever we asked about the parking we were told the free parking was everywhere around the street should you may find a location. We were told we may park in a town parking lot but we'd to pay for the standard fee the city costs. SPACE OBVIOUSLY NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR 3 PEOPLE I had been informed at that time of creating the concerns that even when we terminated there could be no reimbursement personally, I named hotels.com 5 or 6 occasions to negotiate this problem. Every time they might try to contact the resort we remained at and every time I had been informed to call-back the supervisor wasn't available. I delivered a contact to hotels.com requesting an answer I acquired no reaction. Hotels.com did provide me $100.00 and explained which was the very best they might do. I told them which was improper. I have images and that I could be more than pleased to supply evidence of my accusations.
Your Desired Resolution:
I'd like an overall total and TOTAL return. We were in London on holiday of course if it'd not been for that number reimbursement plan of course if additional resorts have been accessible (there is a large occasion happening in London & most resorts were arranged up) we'd not need remained there another evening. Not just was the accommodation terrible but additionally their explanation was complete false advertising. I don't need any reward vouchers, savings or something lacking a complete reimbursement in money/check/money purchase ect

On December 04, the company supplied the next info:
We apologize for almost any trouble Mr. Slopes might have experienced while using the our providers. Hotels.com likes the chance to deal with his criticism.
On 9/27/07 Mr. Slopes approached us to guide a resort within the Levallois Perret, France. The resort of Mr. Hillis option was the Campanile Paris Mission needed sign in day 10/05/07 for 2 evenings and three adult residents. Your brokers are educated and watched to summarize the relevant information on each scheduling in the close of the phone call.including although not restricted to the area kind, resort brand/area, quantity of residents within the space and all conditions and terms. The termination coverage can also be read throughout the scheduling procedure and should be decided before the conclusion of concerns. The termination that put on Mr. Hillis reservation is really as follows: At Hotels.com, we realize that occasionally plans slip through. Hotels.com doesn't cost a big change or end charge.
However, this home (CAMPANILE PARIS OUEST) imposes the next fee to its clients that Hotels.com is needed to spread: cancellations or modifications created after 07:00 PM (WATTS. Europe Daylight Time) on 10/04 are susceptible to a-1 Night Place & Tax fee. The home makes no discounts for no-shows or early checkouts. All conditions and terms will also be comprehensive within the mail verification/bill delivered to Mr. Slopes on 9/27/07. The e-mail verification/bill also offers our detailed disclaimer which states smoking and bedding choices aren't guaranteed.
Hotels.com realizes that there might be instances when the home might not meet up with the objectives of the visitor and could result in their discontent. We promote our clients to contact us instantly if you find an issue throughout their resort stay, this often provides us an opportunity to solve the issue at that time it happened. Sadly Mr. Slopes didn't contact us until 10/12/07 after his finished stay. Connection with us following a finished stay limits our capability to solve our visitor's problems.
We're not able to recognize Mr. Hill's request a complete refund. Your brokers have created efforts to reconcile with Mr. Slopes by providing discounts and deals that have been rejected by Mr. Slopes.
Please contact me when you have any concerns or issues regarding this situation.
Thanks,

Listed here is my reaction to them
Hotels.com was approached the moment I returned home from my moves. To express that that bedding choices aren't assured is absurd. After I guide an area for 3 people good sense might claim you will see enough bedding for 3 people and never a Queen-Sized Bed along with a child’s mattress. We didn't take a look at early because there is NO OTHER AREAS to remain and we'd have now been billed for that room regardless!!! Hotels.com realizes that there might be instances when the home might not meet up with the objectives of the mission and could result in their discontent
Nevertheless
I don't genuinely believe that OUR objectives of:
A doorknob, and not simply a hole in the door in which a doorknob use to become
A clean-room,
An area big enough for 3 people,
Ad on hotels.com site that provides free complimentary parking on-site only to be informed parking is truly about the street that's when you can find parking!!!
And last but not least your bathroom that doesn't have mold growing throughout it…….
Is asking to much.
After many attempts to solve this problem hotels.com ultimately provided a measly $100.00 that we did decline
At virtually no time were DEALS provided of course if they'd been they also might have been declined.
At this time I truly wish to request, “Whatever occurred to simply performing the “right” factor? ” I don't think hotels.com did this purposely but I actually do genuinely believe that you have to take accountability because you were the broker which was utilized in arranging this hotel reservation. When you can never as a business individually browse the resorts which are outlined in your website you then like a business need to be ready to assume responsibility when
There's an issue.
I'm not some individual worrying of a hair in a drain looking to get a return. I'd some actual issues with this reservation which space.
Can you remain in an area without any doorknob?
What about mold developing within the toilet?
Can you matter your loved ones for this? Could this be appropriate for you?
When The response to the above concerns is just a number then please try to realize why I'm so furious over this and just why I'm still seeking an overall total and total reimbursement of $417.60. Sooner or later it becomes a significantly larger problem than simply the cash. It's the main of it. Yes, I'm nevertheless challenging a reimbursement, however it may be the primary of it the pushes me to find justice. I'll carry on up the string so far as I've to if that's what it requires to obtain this solved to my pleasure.
I understand that being an employee of hotels.com it's your work to fight off grievances, conserve the organization cash, attempt to solve problems and wish the complainers fundamentally are happy or wish they simply disappear accepting it's not worth the full time and work to browse it. I’m not going away and also the only means I'll be pleased is by using an overall total and total reimbursement of $417.60
Easily receive an answer i'll post it here aswell... I believe this can not be solved. I actually do love the line in their response that states:
"the e-mail verification/bill also offers our detailed disclaimer which states smoking and bedding choices aren't guaranteed."
Are they kidding me???
They're horrible horrible people don't utilize them
Consider this like a caution they don't guarentee something!!!
