      The Sandman Hotel Abbotsford took a security deposit in GBP off my UK card as well as the room cost for the night. A month later this had not been returned although for some strange reason they claimed to have returned $100 which not only is the incorrect amount none of the chains I know of take only $100 as security. I have written them more than once with a screen shot of proof that shows the hotel charge and the security deposit charge on my UK card. Whoever responded is oblivious to the fact that it shows on my UK card in GBP and has made a story to fit their narrative. They suggested I contact my bank and have provided no proof at all that they have processed the reversal of funds . The exchange rate at 1.70 should be a reversal of $232.23 which is closer to the usual deposit amount taken by other Sandman hotels at this time. I will use the amount because if I put the amount in GBP they will likely refund in dollars… I expect a full refund however they calculate the exchange rate.

      The transaction to refund my credit card didnt work. They blame the third party company who processes the credit card transactions. It has been 4 months now and they still havent refunded my 129 dollar deposit. The managers do not return emails or voicemails. I feel helpless and don't know to get my money back.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
