Maybe this is why people do not post anything on here. You sir, are a JERK. I wanted to use more harsh words but do not want to be removed from this board. I have only posted on here one time, about a hotel I did not book. Most of the others are ones that are in "Hotwire hotel list - Illinois", not sure I should repeat what is already stated. If you must know I book about 10 hotels a year about 20+ nights with Hotwire. I travel over 80 nights a year for Business. I will start to share more when I book something not listed, I am sorry that I needed information ASAP with my daughters issue. From your post I see you could care less what kind of situation someone is in, your just concerned with what they have done for YOU lately. This is for YOU! I booked this room: La Quinta Inn Chicago Hoffman Estates 2280 Barrington Rd. Hoffman Estates, IL 60195 Phone: (847) 882-3312 I see that you have only posted twice. Since you seem to have a vast knowledge of the way Hotwire works, why not more posts from you? I think it garbage you created a "nic" because of your temper, have some guts, be a man and show who you really are. Maybe you are you one of thoes "freeloaders" you speak of. I will tell you that with comments like this it is no wonder no one wants to post anything. I MOD a site and if I were to see comments like this I would send you a PM about your tone when someone is in need. Your weak appology is not accepted! I do not know if you have children, if so your compassion for a 12 year old girl is reprehensible. If not you may know how I feel if you ever have children.
