My intent was to book directly with the hotel chain. Somehow I got redirected to getaroom.com. I realized I did had a non-refundable room but then a pandemic happened. The state was CLOSED to travel into. The events in the region were cancelled. After multiple check ins with the company, they finally did refund the money. I realize with COVID there was a lot going on and I am grateful that they have now decided to refund my money.
Order handled very well an customer highly satisfied
Accidentally booked through getaroom. Thought i was talking to the actual hotel staff as the agent lied. Refused to refund

I booked through kayak with this site. Good price. I booked the wrong date on accident, but it was easy to cancel and re book the correct dates. My fault, but was able to make it right pretty easily.
Excellent customer service. Fully satisfied with my hotel reservation. Thank you!

I booked a room on GetARoom with the AUD amount specified. Once I gave my credit card details and could not cancel the booking, they confirmed the actual USD exchanged to AUD amount, which was vastly higher than what they specified on the 'deal', on the front page of the hotel booking. This is such a misleading and dishonest thing to do. And when you go to cancel they say you have to forfeit one night's rates as the cancellation fee. We are only staying for one night so there was no point. Really not a fair system to work with.

I was very pleased with the service provided. I had called back about a week after making my reservation and the agent advised me that they could get a cheaper rate on the room and assisted me with that. That wasn't even the reason for my call. They were patient and addressed any questions I had.
Thank you for the great feedback and the service opportunity. We appreciate it!

The young lady was very helpful and knowledgeable. I will recommend this site to my family and friends!

The site advertised FREE CANCELLATIONS. When I tried to call and cancel one night, I was told the fine print said free cancellations must be made the next day by 10:00 AM, less than 24 hours after I booked! I will NEVER pre-pay and book a room with hotelvalues.com or getaroom.com. They are both fraudulent.

I made a mistake one day when I tried to book a room at a hotel that I've stayed at in another town numerous times in the past. I typed the hotel and city in Google and clicked on the first linked that was listed. This link was for GetARoom and I thought I was talking to someone from the La Quinta that I stayed at. Big Mistake. I did use that reservation which i thought was high but wasn't sure with all the Covid-19 madness. I went back to the same hotel a couple of days later to stay again. This time I was absolutely sure that I called that hotel directly. I paid an average of $153/night with GetARoom compared to the $103/night going direct to La Quinta. Both rates included all fees and taxes. I just talked to someone at GetARoom and they were not able to give me a breakout of the extra $50/night for "Service Fee". The extra $226 in "Service Fees" would have covered two additional nights at the same hotel. The only service provided was 10 minutes on the phone setting up a reservation that I should have done directly instead. I asked the person on the phone at GetARoom to elevate me to a supervisor and I was told that they could not do that and the only number that they have was the same 1-800 number that I called. FYI, that phone number doesn't give an option to talk to an actual person in customer service.
I'm now going to leave a review on YELP and then contact the BBB. Finally I will contact the attorney generals office to report GetARoom as a SCAM.

All I wanted was to change my arrival by one day latter. After four or five different agents and several phone calls I finally reached an agent who decided to cancel and credit my reservation and make a new one and recharge my visa. I now have the correct reservation but not the visa credit, yet.

I was treated with lots of respect and dealt with very quickly
She was very nice, her hands were tied. The higher-ups tell her what to say.

I initially contacted them back in April to cancel a hotel reservation due to the pandemic. They cancelled it and said they were working on getting the cancellation fees waived... still waiting for a response after the initial response. It was supposed to be 7 days... going on 7 WEEKS!
They say that they've tried to contact you, which is lies. No messages on either phone or calls logged. Finally heard from customer service but refund will take another 3-5 business days to process. If I paid my bills like this, the bill collectors would be at my door.

I MADE A RESERVATION FROM CHOICE HOTELS FOR A CLIENT TO STAY IN COMFORT INN HOTEL, NORTHYORK CANADA. A CONFIRMATION WAS SENT TO ME, ON THE CONFIRMATION SENT ME, IT WAS STATED THAT THE FUNDS WILL BE DEDUCTED BY CCI HOTEL, RES TX US.
BUT WHEN MY CLIENT GOT TO THE BOOOKED JHOTEL, THERE WAS NO RECORD OF SUCHTRANSACTION, AND HE WAS MADE TO PAY CASH BEFORE HE WAS ADMITED. IMMEDIATELY CCI DEDUCTED 713.58 USD FROM MY CARD IMMEDIATELY. ALL ATTEMPTS TO REACH THIS CCI PROOVED ABORTIVE UNTIL I DISCOVERED THEY ALSO USE GETAROOM, I ALSO SENT VARIUS MAILS, THEY NEVER REPLIED
ALL EFFORT TO GET A REFUND BY BANK WAS FUTILE AS THEY CLAIMED MY CLIENT NEVER CAME TO THE HOTEL.SO THEY CLAIMED IT WAS A NO SHOW.
I AM READY TO GO TO COURT, I WILL USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO GET MY CASH, AND REFUNDS,.
EVRYBODY SHOULD DESUST FROM DEALING WITH THIS CRIMINALS

Booked hotel for New York in June and had contacted them in regards to changing my booking. They came back almost instantly to state I had to cancel and rebook. However my hotel in NYC is closed due to coronavirus and is not open on my booking dates. I have contacted them 3 times looking for a change to 2021 or a refund. They have come back to me within an hour with a call, an email and then confirmation of refund, and already processed my refund. Great service thank you.

My elderly mother booked a room through Getaroom.com but then physically cancelled her reservation at the hotel where she was going to stay. She received a cancellation number and was informed everything was taken care of. She was later billed because she was unaware that she still needed to contact Getaroom.com. After working with Getaroom.com, they refunded her credit card. I'm so happy with their prompt attention to this matter.

I booked a room online thinking it was the actual hotel. When the event i was traveling for was rescheduled do to COVID-19, I called to switch the dates of my reservation. The hotel said i had to contact the 3rd party site i booked through. The customer service representative at Getaroom.com was rude and very hard to hear and understand. I explained my situation and was told i could not switch dates or get a refund.

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.
