Yes, nicely played !

Some people who don't have experience with these type of deals should just sit on their hands, as they don't understand how they work.

Mine still quotes $170/nt, but I have never made contact.

Has Booking.com only 'mediated' for those who have emailed, or will they restore all bookings?

congrats to the ones who stuck it out

as far as my one, I'll try out the 10/night at Bali. is there a early departure fee on booking.com reservations?

I too got the confirmation for the $10/nite bookings. Very happy now that I have my Chinese New Year plan out of the way.

You should certainly be entitled to take the room at the price you booked at. I'd give it a day, and then email them about it. Might take them awhile to get out to all the folks who booked. My emails showed up 3 minutes apart.

If someone is just going to use part of their reservation, let me know, if it's in February. I might have a few relatives who want to go while I'm there, so looking at some options.

I guess I will use all 3 rooms booked for February simultaneously, as all reservations have my name only.

I'll be there from the beginning of Feb for three weeks. If your dates fall in that range, I might be able to use 1-2 rooms.

Well, I have friends who are willing to go, but now I'm not sure what to think, because booking.com states that the change of guest name is not allowed, and I have 3 rooms for the same (mine) guest name (I just booked them all using my CC and didn't know which friends will be available).

I am guessing if YOU are there, it will work.
If you are NOT there to check in/check out, I doubt it will work.

OK, but the rates are based on double occupancy. Does that mean that

a) I will be checked in to 3 rooms (so me + 3 friends); or
b) I will be checked in to 1 room and have 6 places available (me + 5 friends)

I'm confused

You could e-mail Mr. Varoquier GM at Baruna,
or wait and see what reports eventually get posted here.
But that will be a long long time in the future.... @:-)
