Last time I booked with Expedia, in a hurry to get going, they took the money but didn't book the room. The hotel gave me an incredibly cheap room, closed for a minor carpet repair, and I spent the evening explaining breach of contract to Expedia, on the phone. Got my money back in 15 minutes. Never again.
I can not more strongly urge you to use someone else than expedia. The cusotmer service is terrible. They will not stand behind their customers when there is aproblem or dispute. The only thing they can say is the vendor hotel says no credit so no credit for you. Even thought we left since there were bug and bed bugs in our last hotel stay. I guess Expedia justwants you to sleep with bed bugs. Abosuletely no help! Avoid and book with someone else!
@@cwaddle that’s what these sites would like you to believe. Do it yourself. Visit any random hotel in the world. Check their rate on Expedia, and then check their rate on their website, and you will see that booking directly, you will get a better price. Why? Because they are not paying Expedia a commission. Who do you think pays that commission? People who book on Expedia. Try it yourself, and you’ll see.
I rarely use booking, while I use Expedia/ hotwire most of times due to price advantages
Is hotwire legit? Idk why so many ppl rate it low

You will ALWAYS get the best rate by booking direct with the hotels.
Totally incorrect and false.
No way. I have never seen that to be case in my own experience . Even this video shows that it is the most expensive option

Prefer Expedia. Have booked three trips with them last three months
Have you ever ran into any trouble when booking with Expedia? I’m trying to book with them but I’m trying to get some advice
Overcoming worldly afflictions is wisdom.
If you can come to terms with reality today,
you are successful.
