Robinson Crusoe Valparison consumer fraud
We booked a room at the Robinson Crusoe Inn in Valparios for the New Years fireworks. The reservations was guaranteed by the hotel with a confirmation number. When we arrived there were no available rooms. As we tried to work something out with the Owner Jorge, over 20 additional people arrived with confirmed reservations. Many had written personal checks to Jorge that were cashed a month earlier. They were also told there were no rooms available. Jorge the owner promptly fled the building and did not return. The staff (which did not speak any english) started to push everyone to take "the solution" which was explained as another hotel in another city. My wife and I had traveled over 3000 miles to see the Valpariso fireworks, so moving to another city was not acceptable. We walked the streets of Valpariso until 3am when we began to feel completely unsafe, so we got in our car and drove two hours to Santiago. We checked in to a Santiago hotel at 5:10 am. We are investigating legal action against Jorge and the Robinson Crusoe Inn.
