I stayed at the Hilton garden inn in October 06 and someone called posing as my husband. they gave him information about me and my stay. the problem is: I AM NOT MARRIED. I called the hotel and complained. They have been very rude about this situation. I am furious. They asked me not to call the hotel nor can I stay there. Please tell everyone to be careful when they stay at the Hilton. I have tried and tried to explain to them what they have done and they stated that my case was closed. I am in the process of contacting a lawyer so that I can... read full review »

I purchased a set of diamonds studs on 1/20/07 from DI's Cozumel, Mexico store at Avenida Rafael E. Melgar #131. The purchase price was $1,500.00 USD. When I got home I decided that I would like to upgrade the quality of my diamonds. The back of the original sales receipt clearly states that "you may receive a store credit on any jewelry purchased by you within 30 days of your purchase provided you return to DI and TI the original receipt for the item purchased along with the item in its original condition". I contacted DI... read full review »

While the St. Gregory appears to be a luxury hotel on the outside the suites, at least the one we stayed in had a serious problem. BEDBUGS. We informed the desk staff to no avail. We've written a letter to the general manager Jay Haddock (sent via email, mail, and fax) and as of this writing nothing has been done. Even showing our arms to the desk clerk didn't elect a response. Between the two of us we have approximately 25 bites each on our bodies. We had to throw away most of the items in our suitcase including the... read full review »

I am very unhappy about writing this letter to you. You may not be aware that the menu at the Magnolia Grill in the hotel has a section that denigrates Southerners and states that they eat and go to the bathroom in the same hour. This is indicative of the management at the Hilton and the work of food and beverage director "MXXXX". When MXXXXis MOD he brings his family to stay at the hotel and his toddler screams all through meals in the restaurant. Marco makes no effort to calm the child or remove... read full review »

I was promised so many wonderful things with OUTDOORS ADVENTURES, only to be extremely disappointed. The costs for this 'deal' is ridiculous--OVER $8000.00--and, again, this was suppose to be a 'deal'. Not only do you pay $8000.00 or even more, but then you have to pay a yearly fee of $348.00! For what? Never any availability, and if there is availability, it is a complete and total disaster: Dirty rooms, broken items, smelly, and the most rude people I have ever met! They won't let you out of this 'deal' for... read full review »

I too am 1 of many of people who have had poor service from Fairfield. I bought my timeshare on 5/2003 in Hawaii on the big island, 154,000 pt. package, from Vicki Hines/sales. I have yet to be able to use my pts since that time and it's Jan 2007 now.. they have repeatedly rejected my requests for usage. Its the same old worn out excuse: "Sorry no time available for your requested dates." I have tried booking time months in advance in an effort to use my pts to no avail..They have deliberately, intentionally over sold the... read full review »

I went through CruiseCompete.com to get quotes on a cruise in May on the Star Princess for 5 cabins (ll family members). I received 8 quotes, the lowest being from Cruises-n-More. This quote was based on "BB" category cabins. (I have this in writing). However, We have been put in BC and BD cat. cabins. We booked this cruise the lst of Oct. just a few days after receiving the quote. I have left emails and phone messages for the agent to please change the BD cabins (at least those 3) to BD cabins. She won't even do... read full review »

I have read other reviews and found 1 thing to be a FACT. The customer service is horrid. First line contacts are rude and supervisors reply in email with the same negative "Valued Customer" answer. I asked them to take that description out. False advertising! I was making reservations and once done, I received an email for a $25 roundtrip discount for each person. The email sale was for 24 hours. They send it 2 hours after it had begun. I thought they would be great about it since I am a FF. They made up technical... read full review »

My husband and I had to fly to Chicago, from California for a funeral. Since it was short notice, I went through cheaptickets.com to get a lower priced ticket. I got us both tickets and noticed that same day they "reserved" the money in my checking’s account. The day we had to fly I didn't check my bank account, we had to be at the airport early. We got to our destination, with no problems. Until I tried to get the rental car, my card was declined. Since this was a unexpected trip, money was a little tight, but I got... read full review »

This was in the month of December, 2006 from Mumbai airport, we were at the airport 35 minutes before the flight Departure, however were not allowed to board the flight, saying that we are already late. Whereas, it was a business trip and we were supposed to attend an event on that particular night. After constant requests as well, we were not given any kind of compensation, credit note or any kind of help from Spicejet. Due to which we end up traveling by Jet Airways, which was of relief to us. read full review »

My family has been a member of this organization since 1983 and never had a problem up until this last summer. We have always enjoyed our time here but, this last summer there was an altercation that rescinded our membership and i feel that we were victimized by not only acting "security" but also by management. I am interested to know if anyone can help in this matter as a by-law states that because of this action they now own about 10,000 dollars of our property. Does anyone know of a "bull dog" lawyer willing to take on a complicated personal injury case? Involving not only physical injures but also financial injuries. read full review »

On my first use of the service hotels.com I noticed that the page for credit card transactions is not secured. So when I called to make my reservation, I guess I was supposed to read all the disclaimers on the website first, which like an idiot I did not so I was extremely surprised when making the reservation that money had to be paid that very moment. I couldn't even make plans to pay in cash, it had to be credit card, Money order, or nothing. When the Rep had answered the line my dog barked so I didn't catch her name nor did... read full review »

Well like many others I too was scammed by these predators. Thank god I resisted their $8,000 club purchase FULL COURT PRESS, but I am out the $100.00 deposit and the free gas. I followed every rule to the letter in order to get my vacation, because once I read it all, I knew they were looking for any way to get out of giving me my vacation. I have certified mail receipts proving I sent everything on time and they signed for it, but no vacation and no gas rebates. Also my transaction was done through the mail, which constitutes mail fraud, a... read full review »

We wanted to celebrate our New Year with another couple at Kodaikanal, one of the Hill Stations in South India. We browsed the internet and after numerous inquiries and browsing narrowed on Hotel J's Heritage (www.jsheritage.com). The web site and and the manager to whom we spoke over telephone promised facilities like 24 hour running hot and cold water, room service, satellite television in the room, telephone facility in the room, multi-cuisine restaurant etc. Here is what we finally got: 1.

In October 2006 we were pressured into purchasing a timeshare with El Cid Resort in Mazatlan with a verbal promise that they would sell the Timeshare that we already owned with Mayan Palace. They were going to give us an automatic 50% of the value of our timeshare, valued at $23,400. The timeshare they were selling us had a value of $29,400.00, and were to put $6,000.00 down, they would give us automatic credit for our Mayan Palace Time Share ($11,700.00) and that they will sell our timeshare and pay off the difference. Well, so far nothing... read full review »

I had the most horrible experience at the Days Inn in Rocklin California! On the weekend of 01/5/07 I visited the Days Inn in Rocklin California with my 69 yr old mother and my 69 year old godmother. We were refused a downstairs room even though I expressed the fact that I had 2 senior citizens accompanying me. We had even received the senior discount on the Days Inn website which should have been a "red flag" that we would need a downstairs room!! Both of the senior ladies have problems with their legs and knees. The walking up and... read full review »

Do Not Stay at the Best Western Greenbrier in Sevierville, Tennessee. Our group's rooms were filthy, and none of the equipment in the room worked. The staff and manager had terrible attitudes. The place is a very old motel, and it is falling apart. There are many other motels in town, so you do have a choice. read full review »

I fell for the story about perpetual rental of half of my weeks purchased, as well as the line that the resort company will buy my unit back for at least my purchase price but probably more than my purchase price after a few years because property values in Cancun go up ten percent or more per year. After purchasing, I read the contract closely and figured out that all the promises were just that, there were no guarantees in the contract. I noticed clause 12 which allows for termination of contract with credit of all monies paid if... read full review »

In September I paid Mr. Hall over $5600 for a trip to Argentina and Chile that was to start 10 November. After he got the money, I didn’t hear from him further until 5 days before the trip was to begin. He was unresponsive to e-mail and phone calls. He finally called and said that he had been in the hospital with pneumonia and his wife’s father had died, etc., but that he wanted to leave on the trip a week later. Again, he was unresponsive until I threatened to call the police. This was around the first of December. He assured me... read full review »

Paid very good money for a timeshare week with Fairfield but when it comes time to reserve your vacation week they say they are all booked up. Your points or week are gone never to be used again and you have lost your money. Customer no-service says they are sorry but there is nothing they can do. They say you are buying an opportunity to stay at a resort but it is first come first serve. This is a first class rip-off. Beware of anything to do with Fairfield or Wyndom Resorts there new owner. read full review »

My wife & I have been staying at that motel for over a decade, with absolutely no problems whatsoever, last stay, May 29th. When I tried to make a reservation in November, they told me Manager Lee Judson had put us on his Do Not Rent list. This list is typically reserved by the hotel/motel industry for drug dealers and prostitutes...! My wife and I are both quiet, responsible, disabled senior citizens. I've been staying at hotels/motels over half the planet for about 1/2 a century. I probably stayed at that Seaside Motel 6 while... read full review »

Alaska used to be one of my favorite airlines, but Alaska/Horizon are my definition of the bottom of the barrel. A group of us flew from San Jose and Seattle to meet in Boise in December 22, 2006. Both flights were late; the San Jose one was over 11 hours late. The Alaska/Horizon personnel are so used to this that they don't even talk about 'scheduled' times, they say "target" times as if being on schedule is an unexpected event. It is. Making matters worse, the Alaska staff makes it clear that there really i... read full review »

In November 2006 I booked a hotel room in Kyoto, Japan through precisionreservations.com (who are linked to Agoda Rewards and HotelCardCharge.com) - I think they are an American company. After I gave my credit card details they held the price of the hotel on my card and made it look like the booking had been processed. However, when I arrived at the hotel, they didn't have any record of my booking. When I emailled precisionreservations.com to ask them to sort out the problem, they denied all knowledge of the booking and said they would... read full review »

I have worked at this hotel for nearly 2 yrs. And no real improvements have been made since I started. The owners are very cheap and hate to pay for Linen, bedspreads or cosmetic repairs. They have Mold, Spiders and Mice. This is of no real concern to them. If they can do a patch up job or hide the needed repairs they will. We just barely passed our bi-yearly hotel inspection. They pay crumbs to their workers, show little care about them and short change them whenever possible.It is no wonder this place is falling apart at the seams. I am... read full review »

My wife and I got scammed in buying a vacation membership in Mexico in 2004. We attended their so called presentation. After the presentation we explained to them that we owned at timeshare else where and couldn't afford double the maintenance fees.

He told us that they would PURCHASE our timeshare for X amount of $ and that the proceeds from this transaction would pay for our membership with money to spare and that this transaction would take no longer than... read full review »

They offer travel packages money off at local restaurants. They claim I can go online and get a free 25 dollar gift card. There is no site to go to. Value Plus offers gift cards to local fast food joints, rebates at online malls, get a free 25 dollar gift card for signing up, and again no place to go to. I called the 800 # and cancelled both things right away, and asked for a cancellation code for my own safe keeping. He wasn't going to give me one read full review »

We are respectable people, I'm a Marketing Manager for a web design company in Portland Oregon, my sister is a lawyer in Newport Beach California and our mother owns her own pre-school in Beaverton Oregon. We are clean, friendly people who travel a lot - yet just wanted a quite weekend at the coast. We would NOT recommend this Inn mainly because of the staff.

I then looked at my receipt received from the front desk on the 29th and not until then realized the name and the room number were incorrect. In fact I... read full review »

As a Mexican American, I feel very ashamed and angry at these people that are doing so much harm to Mexico, with their perverse commercial behavior, as we have learned that we are not the only ones that have suffered the deceiving treatment of the VIP Travel Club and/or the Sunset Lagoon Resort.
