DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego Bayside Hotels in San Diego

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego Bayside

"Dear Trip.com Customer Service, I am writing to report a serious issue regarding my recent booking made through your platform and to request a full refund. The property I booked was advertised using images of a DoubleTree hotel. However, upon arrival, we were assigned a completely different room — a small, apartment-style unit that does not match the listing in any way. This is a clear case of misleading and false advertising. The room conditions were unacceptable: • Strong unpleasant odor and poor air quality • Outdated and extremely noisy air conditioning, making it impossible to sleep • Very poor soundproofing — hallway conversations were clearly audible inside the room When we contacted the front desk, we were told that since the booking was made through Trip.com, they could not make any changes or cancellations. This left us with no support onsite. Despite these conditions, we were charged $258, which is completely unreasonable for a room of such poor quality — not even comparable to a basic motel. It is evident that this listing used branded DoubleTree images to attract customers while providing a significantly lower-standard accommodation. This is deceptive and unacceptable for a platform like Trip.com. I am therefore requesting a full refund immediately. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will proceed with: • Filing a chargeback with my credit card company • Submitting complaints to consumer protection agencies • Reporting this listing for false advertising Please treat this matter with urgency and provide a resolution as soon as possible."

HI San Diego Downtown Hostel ★★★
"The hotel is conveniently situated in the heart of downtown San Diego, surrounded by numerous bars and restaurants. A nearby bus provides easy access to the airport. The property is well-maintained and offers pleasant amenities, including a pool table and arcade machines. However, one drawback is also its location—it’s right in the lively party area, which can lead to noise at night. If you’re sensitive to noise, you might want to consider an alternative hotel."

"The address is very good. There is a parking lot opposite. It costs 20 knives a day and the hotel parking lot is 58 yen. Newly renovated, all aspects of hygiene are very good. There is a bar street nearby and a large boutique, which is very convenient."
