Thanks for your help and advice. Unfortunately... IMHO HW S..KS!!! (EDIT: I have changed my opinion... see updated comments 2 posts below) My first (and I am sure the last) deal with Hotwire - what a rip-off!!! Xbalamque Hotel, Cancun for (fortunately one night only) Check-in date Sun, Feb 18, 2007 Check-out date Mon, Feb 19, 2007 Adults:2/ Children:2 1 room(s) 1 night(s) SubTotal:$75.00 Taxes recovery charges and fees:$8.38 Total Price:$83.38 You can get this hotel any time from cancun.com Total: $80.23 Xbalamque (1 Rooms: 4 Adults ) Type of Room: Standard, Meal Plan: Room Only From: 18/Feb/2007 To: 19/ Feb/ 2007 Sub-Total: $71.00 Taxes and fees: $9.23 Total (Hotel Reservation): $80.23 Total Price: $80.23 So what is the reason to deal with HOTWIRE? Just a waste of time. You would never rent this hotel even for $20 because of the location and bad reviews. I have checked Tripadvisor reviews and it looks like this hotel is just below average so 3,5 stars from HW means in fact 1,5 star. And HW sells this hotel for couple months already as a Cancun Resort (so now you know). Many unhappy customers. For this money you can have nice hotel with breakfast. Does HW have best price guarantee? I am sure that I can get this hotel for less than $70 total. I hope they have a parking... My advice: do not waste your time and go to trav.com - much better cheap hotel deals with breakfast for better price and you know what you pay for. Edit: F..K! - you can get this hotel with breakfast for total:$81 - HW - just a bunch of thieves... -------------------------------------------------------- Q: Does Hotwire guarantee the lowest hotel rate? A: Yes. We've negotiated such incredible hotel hot-Rates
