Overbooking is the strategy
After a 13 hour trip, we arrived at a place that was overbooked. An alternative hotel was offered 3 km up the hills, so clearly not a 'walk to the beach' anymore. Hotel staff was OK, but young. Manager on the phone did not talk to us, but to the girl instead. We were offered dinner as a compensation, but we had to stay elsewhere. Note: we were not hungry and had other dinner plans for the next night... No financial compensation offered, but only free dinner at the hotel that we could not stay in. Arriving at the alternative place gave us the impression that this happened (much) more often... Note: we were supposed to be contacted about our proposal of financial compensation by the manager the next day, but this did not happen.
Note; the review of the room in the hotel is not valid since we did not get one.
