      I have, of course, reported them to Booking dot com (btw, just realized why your comment disappeared-it’s because you probably put a link in the comment. TH-cam doesn’t like that).
      I don’t want to pick a fight with the hotel. I just want people to be aware of the scam so they tread the path of online booking for cheap hotels carefully

    Really sorry to hear about this especially because it's in our State but I think this happens everywhere , it's just that it becomes even more sad if there are first time visitors who are visiting to explore the place but just because of such scammers they're visit will just be the first and last 🥺🥺 without knowing that there are good people out there in our beautiful state . Hope anyone who sees this will still come to shillong and experience the beauty that surrounds us.

      People do advance booking because they don’t want to waste time looking for a hotel after reaching their destination. So asking the customer to pay more than what they originally booked for is unethical and a breach of contract. At 8:30pm at night I won’t go hotel hunting and I’m forced to pay them more. That’s a scam
