### 5/5 — 호텔 추천. 선택. 취소규정

*2026-06-27*

현재 운용되는 호텔앱 중에서 제일 편하고 안전하고 신뢰감 높다고 생각합니다
3년째 매달 1회이상 사용중❗️💕👍 멤버십 포인트 카드가 있으면 더 좋겠습니다‼️

### 2/5 — This site doesn’t recognize my Rakuten login

*2026-03-22*

Booked hotel thru email because it doesn’t recognize my Rakuten sign in for some reason. Very glitchy app.

### 3/5 — Overpriced
