Booking.com confirmation not enough for France visa
My girlfriend applied for a Schengen visa from France two days ago. Now she got an update asking her to provide a hotel confirmation. However we did provide this (through booking.com). It includes all required details like price, tax etc. The only thing is that we did not prepay the reservation. Does someone have experience with this? Or don't they accept confirmations through booking.com anymore? Their request is not really detailed.
