Unacceptable Hotel Conditions – Request for a Full Refund
I have been booking through Expedia for over 10 years because I have always trusted your platform. Unfortunately, this has been the worst travel experience I have ever had.
The hotel is an absolute disgrace and should not be listed on Expedia. Our first room was dirty, had no air conditioning, and was completely unacceptable. The receptionist showed no concern and made no effort to help. After a lengthy discussion, we were moved to another room, only to find that the bathroom had not been cleaned and the trash had not even been emptied.
To make matters worse, the neighborhood feels extremely unsafe. Even the hotel bartender warned us not to walk back at night because of safety concerns.
I repeatedly tried to contact Expedia for assistance, but it was nearly impossible to reach anyone. As an Expedia Gold member and loyal customer for over a decade, I expected much better support.
Although this reservation was non-refundable, I booked in good faith, trusting Expedia to offer accommodations that meet basic standards of cleanliness, safety, and customer service. Instead, we had no choice but to leave and pay for another hotel just to have a clean, safe place to sleep.
I respectfully request a full refund and ask Expedia to investigate this property so other travelers do not experience the same situation. This hotel does not meet the standards your customers expect or deserve.
