I booked a room with this site. When I called I specifically asked if I could leave my vehicle at hotel. They assured me I could and that it came with the hotel fee. When I got to hotel they said they don't except cars to stay when you reserve with this site.
I didn't realize this was a service and I would be billed $19.99. I thought I was booking through the Hotel and was mislead, but know now to pay better attention. I was also billed an extra $67 at the hotel which I haven't yet disputed.
Michelle, We apologize for your experience. Please advised your reservation was not book directly on our Getaroom site or with one of our Agents. We have notified your booking agency and have advised them to contact you directly to address your concerns and obtain a favorable resolution.

We got your phone number by going to google looking for a specific motel. Made the reservations through you and paid an extra $73.47 for that mistake. Word of mouth from your customers is the best & worst way to recommend your company. I have & will continue to spread the word about your company. Even on Google in the "Ask" area, it says your company is not legit.
William, Great news-Your refund has been set up! Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the amount of inquiries received, the refund time-frame will understandably be longer than normal. We apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience during this global pandemic. We do take all of our customers' reviews very seriously and would appreciate it if you would either update your negative comments/star rating on Sitejabber with your positive resolution, or remove them. On behalf of the entire Customer Service Department with Getaroom.com, we thank you for the service opportunity.

KUDOS to GetARoom for their great Customer Service. I had to cancel an upcoming trip in June/2020 due to the Coronavirus Pandemic. All the activities I had planned to take part in during this vacation had been cancelled. Even though the cancellation policy did state the reservation was "non-refundable", GetARoom did the right thing and gave me a full refund of $658.79. This really shows me that they care about their customers and in the future I will definitely use their site again for my bookings. Great Company...

Not only was I directed to this booking tool via a deceptive google ad (shame on me, I guess), I was charged a $19.99 fee that was not disclosed (they say that them saying that "with taxes and fees" covers it, but the "fee" was to their platform, separate and on top of the standard hotel taxes and fees you normally get.
THEN, the total amount that they verbally told me over the phone increased by ~$8 when they actually charged me/sent me a receipt.
I will never use them again and I will be VERY careful next time I use a promoted link on google. Shame on you, "getaroom", or "reservatons.com" or whatever your company name is.
Hello,
Please know that we do take our customers' reviews very seriously. In follow-up, after multiple unsuccessful attempts to reach you to work toward a favorable resolution, we will note this case as closed due to no reply from customer. Thank you.

Clicked on an ihg hotel site, and dialed, answered "hotel reservations" not "getaroom.com" when rep told the me total with room and tax for 3 nights, I questioned her about why the tax and fees were so high for 3 nights stay, $131.00. She sidestepped the question and stated it was for taxes and fees again, I then questioned her if she was reservations for IHG, Holiday Inn, and she told me "we are an authorized agent for them" I booked the room for $422.02, got to the hotel, and they said I got a fanatastic rate, it was going to cost me $258.00 for 3 nights, including taxes. The hotel then said the room was booked under a mastercard, which I do not have. So Getaroom.com charged me $422.02, and they paid the hotel $258.00 for my room, overcharged me $163.00. The hotel told me if I booked directly with them I would have paid approx $120.00 per night with tax. Now since this is a business trip my company will only reimburse me for the $258,00 for the receipt I receive from the hotel, so I have to pay the additional $160.00 out of my pocket. I would ask for a refund, but I know I will get the standard response as I have read in all the other complaints i see on this site. I will review negative stars, I cant believe some regulatory agency cannot do something about these scamming practices, I have reported this company to Corporate IHG.

I grabbed the hotel number offline. Thought I was calling hotel directly, mentioned didn't want third party site because all the issues. He never said anything about being one. Then the taxes and surcharges on a room that was 89.99 were 45 for a total of 135.15. I kept questioning the charges saying it didn't sound right and he said yes they are all normal and what you would be charged elsewhere. I called hotel directly and they said no way. My bill with them was 103. Save yourself money go to the hotel directly to book.

Very friendly and helpful attendees. The desk clerk was very pleasant and offered expert services information
Ie; breakfast hours and ordering our food
My room was nasty & dirty, the carpet was smelly, but since I paid in advance I couldn't get a refund is very upsetting to me. But you'll only get me ONCE! & I'm gonna be sure to let my 15k social media friends know about it.

Please don't waste your money this is a homeless shelter not a hotel it's horrible
They booked me the wrong room. I was supposed to get a room with two queen size bed. I received a room with one king size bed for three people. I did not notice until I got to the hotel to get to my room. The hotel said that's all they had available.
I contacted you guys and just got a run around and you could not help us out to find another room at this hotel or any other hotel. So we ended up staying one night and left even though I paid for two nights. We found a hotel elsewhere.

Place was very comfortable but a few minutes drive from the main place to be... are was very nice and quiet... and allowed an early check in which was very nice and made place to feel welcome and pleasant... love the room it was very clean and in great condition...
Don't book with get a room I never checked in the hotel during a world pandemic and was told I could not get a refund I would not recommend get a room website to any room. It's a scam they take your money and run. According to the terms on the contract it says you may be charged a cancellation fee. Not the entire fee as it you stayed at the hotel. Do not boom anything with get a room. A customer service representative stated I would get a refund and months later I was told by my bank the refund was denied. Stick to know sites because this one is a scam
The site is simple and they did end up refunding me - but you need to be careful. I was on my mobile device while traveling, trying to book directly through a hotel's website, and wasn't aware that I had ended up on the GetARoom site. After I clicked "book the room" I realized I was being charged almost $40 more than the advertised price. I asked the hotel clerk when we arrived and he said it was because I booked through an external site. When I complained to GetARoom, they did eventually refund the difference. But I feel like they should make it much more obvious that they aren't the hotel site and you WILL be charged a hefty fee when booking thru them.

I wanted to cancel the reservation because I made it at the wrong la quinta Inn in. Tyler texas. My son is getting married 8 hours away and the out of town wedding party I am with is at another motel. La quinta inn reservations have been great. Will not recommend you to anyone esp any of the wedding guests.

I would not book a room through this company. You do not get a chance to review the total before you buy it. I had over 50% in room fees added to my total. If I would have seen the total I would have passed. Now I am unable to get a refund, it is deceptive.

I made reservations and they were not correct, in order to fix it you were required to cancel and maybe not get the same rate. I would not use this again.

Quick, easy, order was ready on time and accurate!
This site is a complete scam. They take your money right away- which should have been a flag for me-and do nothing to help when there's a problem. They just say "sorry". Norma- the night shift manager is useless- she refused to help. They lied with everything they said. The hotel was willing to work with us to help but the site refused any assistance. I was trying to make reservations for my son- he is across the country- and it was a horrible experience. DO NOT USE THIS SITE!

Answer: They are not ethical. For me, they used a website that appeared to be the actual hotel website, did not identify themselves when they should have, and did not mention booking fees while they charged a 30 percent booking fee for a room that was its normal price. They were supposed to cancel charges on my credit card and did not. STAY AWAY!
Answer: They are a site attached to Trip Advisor---- if you see them on screen while trying to book a room-- hit cancel. I'm out over $150 because of their fraudulent cancellation policy.
Answer: Thought I was booking on the actual hotel sight but was deceived in as much as it was Getaroom. Talked to someone else also staying at this hotel at the same for about a third less. Called them right back and had already charged my card and it would be up to 3 weeks to refund. That's about what it took but did get refund. Then checked reviews and no one had anything good to say about getaroom. Go straight to hotel sight of one you know and trust or stick with something like Travelocity.
Answer: I'm definitely in. There's something very deceptive, if not illegal, when you start off on a hotel's website and when you click Make a Reservation, it somehow transfers you to the GetARoom site without your knowledge. I had no idea this was done until I received their email confirmation. I'm thinking of contacting my state's Consumer Protection Div. Of the AG's Office to file a complaint when I get back from vacation.
Answer: Call 800-468-3578 but good luck. They are scammers
Answer: Wow. This is one bad company. Made a reservation and then needed to cancel. They gave cancel date all along. I called to cancel on that date and was told that date was only for 1 minute of date they told me. I was supposed to forfeit one night's cost. Luckily I made reservation on AMEX and they'll tell this fraud company to get lost. Moral of the story: make reservations through hotel.
