Disappointing customer service experience.
Booking.com chose not to respond to reasonable request move out a booking due to current travel restrictions and took the option to charge a cancellation fee of 50%.
The service is a sham and endeavours to isolate itself from direct communication and does not log any request through the customer service app to fall back upon.
Don't waste your money go direct to the hotel and ask them to price match, guaranteed you will get a better result...
