Sometimes, you arrive at a holiday destination and realise the view from your hotel room is even more beautiful than you pictured. Other times, you realise it’s literally a picture. An Argentinian woman has shared a now-viral video exposing an alleged hotel scam she experienced while on holiday in Italy .
Clarisa Murgia was travelling around Italy when she arrived at a B&B which she claims was described as a vacation of a lifetime. Muriga did not disclose the location but said she paid a premium price for an ocean view. When she arrived at the room, she did indeed see a stunning ocean view, with clear blue waters and a sweeping coastline populated with distant villas.
However, she soon realised it was an illusion and the image was actually a large poster stuck to the wall of a building right beside her window.

Once she moves outside, it becomes clear the image is a poster, used to spruce up a narrow alley.
“Someone rented a B&B with a sea view. I feel scammed, guys,” read a translation of text overlaid on the video. “No one has ever deceived me like this before, hahaha.
