sjpgolf Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 I've been trying Priceline to find an affordable hotel at DTW for night prior to my early flight. Bidding there was not going well, so decided to explore Hotwire and found a 3* for $47. The 3*'s listed on the hotel list (which I know is not all inclusive) were quite acceptable, so I bought the 3*. Surprise, surprise, it wasn't any of the 3 hotels listed, but the Clarion! And the reviews are horrible!! And I could buy the night at the hotel on their website for $54 so saved a whopping $7. Oh wait, it gets better, I could have bought the night I needed on a non-refundable rate for $46 -- so I lost $1. Never, never again will I do Hotwire... I just got royally RIPPED OFF. Is there anywhere I can complain on Hotwire where I might get a response. This really sucks.... Link to comment

If that don't work so try to call HOTWIRE again when you arrive to the hotel and don't like it.Please use the site's HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links to start future purchases.Yellowdog. Link to comment
