Made a hotel reservation online and drove 45 minutes to the hotel. This hotel is located 3 1/2 hours away from my home. When we received a confirmation that our room is guaranteed. When we arrived at the hotel at midnight, the hotel was oversold and our reservation was not honored. I made five phone calls to hotels.com and could not get anyone to help us. They processed my payment and told me it would take up to two weeks to get a refund. Their office is located in the Philippines and no one there speaks English as a first language. It took me five calls to get a confirmation of cancellation which then stated that I may or may not get a refund. The entire area we were traveling to was sold out because of the football game and we were left without a reservation. We ended up finding our own reservation and paying for it again so the entire evening at a cheap hotel cost us more than $300. I would not recommend hotels.com if it was the only way on this earth to get a hotel room.
