Bad hostel, recourse?

7/13/2016 1:49:55 PM

In 2016, a bad online review with a lot of visibility is a big deal. Find a few high traffic websites (tripadvisor, google, facebook) and leave them not an angry rant, but a bad and polite review. Companies are very sensitive about their online reputation and image (and if they’re not they won’t survive very long) and are much quicker to react than in offline, in-person interactions because of this public visibility.

As for a financial recourse, I think you can forget about getting your money back. After the date of check-in most places would have kept the money anyway even if you didn’t show up. As much as I feel your pain, there was technically no fraud or con, which means there’s no ground for reversing a charge on a credit card (for example). The hostel did give you a room in exchange for your money, except it was awful.
