So me and my friends booked a hotel in Marseille for Euro 2016 in a couple weeks and the hotel just asked us to send them our credit card info by email to charge us before hand since hotels.com hasn't taken payment and they want to protect themselves against people backing out.
This sketches me out a lot. I've never heard of a hotel doing this and to compound the fears I was immediately sketched out about this hotel when we booked it cause the website and stuff seems very amateur and I couldn't find it on google street view. They said they were renovating and there were past reviews so I got over it but now....
Thoughts?
We're in a tough spot now since there's nothing really available at this time.
They're listed on the major sites:
