Being creative! - I had the best time practicing Hangul with Jeongju! She was sweet and her passion for what she does was contagious. The studio was so cozy and it was great being able to bring home my own scroll with my own writing in Hangul. I recommend this to everyone. Thank you!

Unresolved Refund and Data Protection Failure - In August 2024, Booking.com confirmed to me in writing that a full refund would be issued for misadvertised accommodation, funded 50/50 by Booking.com and the property. That refund has not been paid. After repeated unanswered communications, I submitted a Subject Access Request (SAR) in November 2024 under the UK GDPR. I followed up in writing and by phone. I have received no written acknowledgement, no confirmation of deadlines, and no substantive response. This review is to document an unresolved refund and a failure to meet basic data protection obligations. I invite Booking.com to respond publicly and confirm when this matter will finally be resolved. JParker
