HOTEL.COM Took me for a Joke

The reason for the one star is not because of residence inn. It’s because of Hotel.com. I was told by hotel.com that I would get a water view and a balcony on my anniversary on June 16. At 7:43 am. Which I was only able afford one night.. I was played around with from the beginning from the representative to the claim department. They sent emails and asking me to reply back knowing that I couldn’t reply. I was constantly getting undelivered emails back. It was being honest for me especially when it comes to reservations. Don’t lie to me and tell me something and then when I try to solve the problem by reaching to a higher department, I still get lied to and put in a circle with no problem solving… As a business you stand up for your mistakes and take a fall no matter what to keep people coming. Don’t think cause me just being one person what stop anything. Slowly people will not make reservations. I was waiting to make my review to see what will hotel.com do - If they would’ve solve my problem the honest and business way. I would’ve left a great review if they would’ve did there job correctly- But thanks residence Inn for the wonderful stay it was just hotel.com that didn’t delivered…
