Excellent
May 1, 2018

Great Experience.
The length of this review is getting to me! Many people don't have the time or the inclination to write more if they are satisfied with the service.

I made a reservation through Getaroom for the Rafaello hotel in Chicago. I got an illness and was unable to travel. I contacted Getaroom to start a refund process, they said to ask the hotel. So I called hotel and the general manager purposefully ignored me. I spoke to other people working at the hotel and they told me that GM was aware of my calls but didnt want to speak with me. She just wanted to run the clock until it was the date of my checkin and it would appear that I was a no-show. She knew I was sick but purposefully avoided all my calls and emails. All the other employees felt bad for me but said they didnt want to go over her head. I contacted getaroom multiple times bc theyre the ones who had actually taken the money, relayed the situation, and the reps and managers said, not our problem, too bad. Literally. I was taken back. How can you have a contract with a hotel that purposefully avoids their patrons, a GM at that! And up until now, no one ever asked about how Ill I am. So sad. Im a human being, at least address my concern, a GM that avoids their patrons? Thats crazy. And Getaroom says, not aloud problem. Wow! Money in the trash for nothing. :( you dont treat people that way.

UPDATE ON 5/5/2018: they refunded me and sent me an apology email. So that was nice.

Quick and efficient
April 30, 2018

GetARoom found me what I wanted for a good price and in an expeditious manner/ Now I'm resenting (slightly) that I'm being asked to provide a description of at least 100 words which I don't have time to do. Shame on you!

Would not recommend!
May 1, 2018

The hotel I booked was disgusting! I spoke to the front desk about needing to cancel, they were very understanding and told me it wouldn't be a problem it would be refunded through the 3rd party I booked with! However it apparently was a big problem and I have called multiple times and cannot get the issue resolved. They are not helpful at all and I will never use them again!

It was easy enough to book a room through TripAdvisor, but I did not realize that they were a throughway for other third parties like GetARoom. All worked fine but nothing snazzy. I would like to have known it was not TripAdvisor actually booking the room for me (they are certainly big enough to have a bookings group under their umbrella!) rather than a third party.

A total rip off
April 29, 2018

My secretary booked thinking it was the hotel direct, but we realized it was Get A Room instead. Site appeared to be the hotel. Was charges about $40 fee in with taxes. I called 10 minutes after booking and tried to cancel, was told they could cancel but I still had to pay the entire amount ($169) as a fee. I threatened a bad review, she said "sorry, there is nothing I can do" NEVER use Get a Room!

Difficult but successful
April 27, 2018

Both the kayak.com and getaroom.com websites did not accept either of my payments. The error message stated it was a payment processing issue. I talked to three reps and finally got it sorted. We had to book one room at a time. The whole process took over an hour when it should have taken less than ten minutes. We did get a great rate.

I made a booking and quickly cancelled that booking. However GetaRoom had deducted the full amount from my card, and i am still waiting for my refund. I am distressed about my money, and would never use this site again.
I just hope my refund will be credited to my card soon.

Trouble changing my reservation
April 29, 2018

I booked a reservation for two rooms and had to change it to one room. The agent had to cancel the original reservation and create a new one. This took 20 minutes that I didn't have.

Made a reservation I thought directly to Best Western in Buda Texas. Had no idea it was a third party until I recieved my reservation number and was overcharged on my card. Absolutely could not get anyone to cancel. When I finally spoke to someone and asked for a cancellation and refund, he basically said i had been scammed, and too bad for me. I am nervous about these people EVEN HAVING MY CREDIT CARD INFORMATION! Absolutely disgusted!

Booking a stay in Acapulco
April 25, 2018

I was pleasantly surprised to find a superb rate. I was a little disappointed of not being able to pay at the hotel. I guess you can't have it all!

There really isn't much more to say. The price beat all the others for the same hotel! It was very quick, and easy!

I cancelled the reservations due to the deceptive selling. No mention they BILLED my credit card within an hour, when I was only RESERVING a room, NOT PAYING for a room two months in advance!

No mention of ANY $25 fees to cancel the reservarion... a horrible customer service experience!

Great price
April 25, 2018

This site gives great prices, but no cancellation... I only wish we could have that option in case of an emergency. But, I could not beat the price.

I DID NOT realize I was using a 3rd party company when I made a hotel reservation. I cancelled it with in 30 minutes of booking it. When I got online for my bank account I saw the money for a room I cancelled was taken out of my account in full. When I called the hotel to ask about it they said they don't charge for the room until arrival. So i called getaroom and was told they could do nothing because I had the wrong cancellation. The agent only decided to help me when I told him I was getting irritated that he was telling me they could take money out of my account even AFTER I CANCELLED THE RESERVATION. From now on when booking a hotel I will make sure I call the hotel directly so I NEVER GET SCAMMED AGAIN! This practice should be illegal! So much for free cancellation if they charge you 2 months before your check in date. Be were of who you're dealing with!
