We used Expedia to reserve a room to stay in Binghamton university area. The first trip went well because the hotel was not greedy and agreed to terminate the second day reservation without any penalty. We expected the same from the Best Western Hotel that we reserved recently. We were surprised to find out that the Best Western is greedy and refused to refund for canceling the reservation for the second day. We did notify the front office staff who checked in. So, we gave the hotel 24 hours of advance notice. However, Barbara, the Assistant General Manager, refused to refund the full rent for the second day. She did agree to refund a partial amount deducting a fine for canceling the second day after the intervention of the Expedia staff. The Expedia failed to notify us of this second day termination policy. It is also unavailable at the time of reservation. When we reported the problem to Expedia, the first representative did negotiate a partial refund, but the second representative simply said that there was nothing that she could do as the hotel decided everything! The bottom line is that the Expedia gets commission for directing customers to a hotel but failed its obligation to provide customers with necessary information about policies of a hotel.

Not good.

We got there at 3pm which was check in time but our rooms weren't ready until after 5. They said one of their dryers broke.down. I took a shower and had luke warm water, reported it. when I grabed a towel to dry off the towel was already wet. We asked for some compensation at checkout and they would do nothing. The room was not clean and the shower floor was blak. they

For over $300 a night you would expect more. Bathroom ceiling tiles moldy. Room itself smelled. Had to keep AC on 64 so we could avoid the smell. Bathroom floor looked like it hadn’t been swept for awhile. Workers were great but room was what you would expect for $59 a night. Not what we paid.

Not even a coffee option in the room after paying close to $250 per night. I chose this hotel slightly away from university to avoid university move in day issues with hotels around the university. For the same charges I can better service in and around vestel and university areas..like I did last year with last minute booking. I thought this will be better but not everything you read/see in pictures is true

The rooms and facilities could use an update, and the cleanliness was average. The breakfast was OK. We skipped our laundry after checking out the washers and dryers. The advantage was the price, so we didn't have too much to complaint.
