Trivago. What does “exactly the same” mean?
What bothers me about
their claim of: “The exact same room for less” is that no two rooms are
“exactly” alike.
All hotel rooms have
things in common( beds,bathrooms,closets, and some furniture). What makes a big
difference is location of the hotel as well as the room.
If the view from the
window is a brick wall or a great ocean view or cityscape, or if the room is
near the noisy street or elevator, or convenient to the parking lot, is a big
difference. Also, the neighborhood: A peaceful quiet area, or a run-down
part of town. Amenities make a smaller, but important difference (firm beds,
new TV, new towels).
The claim: “Exact same
room” could be deceiving. You sometimes get exactly what you pay for.
I agree. That ad has bothered me since it started running. Motel 6 the same as Marriott? I think not.
