  • Refund and Cancellation Difficulties: Customers express extreme dissatisfaction with rigid cancellation policies, often struggling to secure refunds even in emergency situations or when the third-party provider fails to deliver the service.
  • Hidden Fees: Numerous complaints highlight unexpected charges upon arrival, such as undisclosed resort fees or local taxes that were not clearly communicated during the initial checkout process.
  • Misleading Listings: Travelers frequently report inaccurate property descriptions, incorrect room types, and misleading distance estimates to airports or attractions on the website.
  • Third-Party Coordination Issues: Booking discrepancies, such as hotels or car rental agencies not having the reservation on file upon arrival, are a common source of negative feedback.
