GBBeware!! Beware!!! We booked a room thinking we were booking through Hampton Inn. Canceled the reservation 15 minutes after booking and was told they were taking one night cost as a fee. Just tried calling again and they won’t even answer the phone unless you want to make a new reservation. This is unprofessional and a scam.

GBCustomer service is responsive I was unhappy when I realized this third party booking agency severely over charges for the room. They charged me $350 per night for a room that was $250 per night at the Marriott. Furthermore, when I clicked on the link to book, their website posed as the direct hotel, which I found confusing. When I tried to cancel that same day after mistakenly booking, they told me there is a no refund policy. I had to speak directly with the hotel and the customer service agents at the hotel so they would agree to refund the third party. I contacted the agency, GetARoom.com, and they were responsive to my concerns with being charged in full after they had been refunded by the hotel. They agreed to refund me a portion of the room charge to resolve the misunderstanding. While it wasn’t a full refund, I do appreciate that they responded quickly. If it had been a full refund, I certainly would have given a 5 star rating because that would have been the ultimate customer service:

GBSCAM They are a phishing organisation who somehow - so far - slipped through the US law despite class action law suits being filed against them. They masquerade as the hotel's website, making you believe that you book directly with the hotel. They do not show full prices before directing you to the card details page. They politely answer because they have prepared all the responses already when they set up their practices that should be illegal to start with. Upon contacting the hotel, the personnel told me they did not even receive my reservation nor any money. Getaroom's cancellation costs more that the room itself that they say are "processing fees" - I ask, what processing, when they did not even contact the hotel nor sent any money? Avoid this organisation at all cost and double check what address you book on, hotels would never direct you to this shady website.

GBThey double booked me and will not refund Booked a room through this company via a link sent to me by our volleyball club. Accidentally booked for 1 night and meant to book for 2. Called within two hours of booking to “change” the reservation to 2 nights. Unfortunately they did not have an extra night available for the room I originally booked so they offered me a different room at a higher rate which I accepted. Showed up to check into my room inly to find out that they didnt change my reservation at all. They booked me for another room at 2 nights. Now they are refusing to refund my first reservation. I requested a copy of the “recorded call” and was told I would receive a copy within 72 hours. NOTHING has been sent to me. When I reply to their email they are now telling me for contractural reasons I am unable to receive a copy of the recording. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!

GBGetaroom.com Saved Me Money Getaroom.com has great customer service, which isn't easy to find these days. I originally had a issue that was mostly my fault for not paying attention to details, and they made it right. Ultimately saving me money overall which is the core of their business. If you're looking for the best rate for a room, explore all your options, including getaroom.com, and I'm sure you'll find the best deal available.
