I searched all around for a good deal on a hotel for 3 nights. I found such a great deal on cheapoair.com & was happy to see that it was refundable up until the day before my stay. Well got it all booked and realized (too late) that they charged me $85 in taxes & "govt" fees!! That was more than the cost of 1 night in the hotel. Extremely sneaky, but I should have been checking closer.
Then I found out that I wouldn't be able to stay at the hotel after all. Good thing it there was the option to cancel at no charge. WRONG!!! I called to cancel and they told me that there is a processing fee for canceling of $35 and a service charge of $50. Are you kidding me????? I saw nothing about these fees anywhere on the page while I was booking. (That was the one thing I was paying very close attention to) I tried to tell them this & they wouldn't budge. I asked to talk to a supervisor & was basically told too bad, you have to pay it.
The other upsetting thing was trying to get through to this place to cancel in the first place. I spent a 1/2 hour on hold & had to give up. Tried again & finally got through after 45 minutes! Then was placed on and off hold for 20 minutes while they worked on pulling up my info. Their phone lines were crappy so it was very hard to hear, plus we had a serious language barrier to deal with.
Please stay far away from this site!!!
