Hey Prasann,Thanks for taking the time to share this. We're sorry your stay ended on a frustrating note and that the paperwork didn’t match what you expected. That’s not the smooth, transparent experience we want you to have at Ruby Emma.To give a bit of context: in the Netherlands, different VAT rates apply to accommodation and breakfast, which means that even if both are booked as a package, they may appear separately itemised on the invoice. This is a standard accounting requirement rather than an adjustment made by the hotel, although we completely understand how this can feel confusing when you’ve booked a combined rate.That said, we’re sorry that your request for clarification and a revised invoice didn’t feel properly supported. Even when the format itself can’t be changed due to local tax regulations and system constraints, we should always make sure the explanation is clear, transparent, and helpful.We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance so we can show you the easy, attentive Ruby experience you expected.Your Ruby Emma Team
