OT : Travel Question

I have several times, and had (mostly) good results. The process was smooth, and the billing was always correct.

Most of the hotels have been great, but one hotel in Southern California was really bad. The first room had a light that wasn't working, so we changed rooms. The second room didn't have a working toilet, so we changed again. The last room didn't have a working TV, but we were too tired to ask for another room. :(

I have never used it. I usually know the hotel brand(s) I want, go to their website and check out the prices, then call the hotel(s) direct, and get a price. It is almost always the same price. DH said that Price Line was what a friend of ours used one time. He discovered when he got to the hotel, he was paying much more than the normal rate. The hotel said they could not give him the lower rate because he had booked it throught Price Line. He argued with them for 3-4 months before they finally refunded the difference in the rates which was over $100.00 for 2 nights. Where are you going, Diana?

I've used them numerous times with great results. I once got a $199 a night room for $60.

Now I use Kayak.com which is one large search engine that searches all the travel sites and many hotel chain sites at once(expedia, priceline, travelocity, orbitz, cheaphotels, best western, etc...), and compares all the prices to get you the lowest.
