Hoteller nær Yax-Muul

"Despite previous good reviews, this hotel is sadly currently a scam. We arrived to check in Sunday July 13th to find it was closed «for refurbishment». We had booked months in advance and have been continuously reachable via phone/hotels.com. And yet Alea made no attempts to warn us in advance. Instead we were told nonchalantly on arrival that we had been «relocated» to a different hotel where the room we were offered and facilities turned out to be below the standard we had already paid Alea for in advance. We also felt unsafe as this was unlike anything we have experienced on travels in the past. We would not accept the relocation and instead wanted to move to a hotel of our own choice. They told us that this was understandable and that we could get a refund after emailing the manager at Alea, which we did before we left. He has not responded to that nor to other attempts to contact him since, and has not refunded our payment for a stay that was supposed to be 6 nights but never happened! Hotels.com say they are working on getting our money back from the hotel, but as I write this they have not succeeded. We do not understand why Alea is allowed to continue selling rooms that are in fact unavailable, but hope their listings will be taken down shortly to prevent even more customers from being disappointed."
