Don’t believe the price….

I will never use hotel.com again and this hotel. When I made the booking it was from Singapore where I live and make my bookings from. The amount was $600. Suddenly the app has changed and that amount was $600usd despite all my other bookings being in sgd. its fraudulent behaviour and deceitful.
