“I regularly use this app to book hotel rooms, and I usually have good experiences. However, the last hotel room I booked was terrible. I didn’t even stay there that night because there was dirt, dust, and food crumbs under the bed. I had to leave immediately. I’d like to file a complaint about this.”
