I agree that the hotel should honor the pensionado benefits (whatever the stupid discount is). Hey Pat Wall,

Realize that I have no association with the hotel and posted what I posted just to give people an idea of what was in David. As far as I know, the error could be mine. I will send them an email and have them read the post and tell me if I need to change what I wrote. At least your mentioning you read it here helped, so I guess that is a good thing. I will tell you that jubilado rates are not always given on all rooms or during all times of the year in certain places. I don't think that is the case here, but just so you don't expect to receive 50% all the time everywhere. I know that I have heard that Decameron has special rules. Sorry you had problems.

They said the rate was $35.00 and we said fine but we were Jubilado and the reservation was for a week night so we were entitled to a 50% discount. They then said they would give us the room for $27.00. When I questioned them they said the rate for that room was normally higher but they were giving us the "corporate" discount.I told them that you had listed the rate on your site as $35.00 and that I would tell you that you had the wrong rate posted so that they would not have any further problems from Jubilado Gringos who will think they are getting ripped off, and we would pay the $27.00 for the room. At that point he said that he did not want me to feel that I was being cheated and gave me the room at 50% off the $35.00 quoted rate.This was entirely in English by the way. It is this kind of thing that is really getting on a lot of peoples nerves. We ended up eating next door in the cafe for the first time but certainly not the last. The food was great,and we have recommended it to several friends, and hope to be abel to do the same for the hotel.If more places would have their rates or prices posted openly then at least you would know what you were dealing with.
