As someone once said "...fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again."

I've got to make this the last time I use Hotwire except when I'm purchasing the known quantity of La Quinta Fresno when my Priceline bids don't take.

Since Priceline couldn't guarantee a room for three, I thought it best to go with Hotwire. Especially since they listed a 3 and Priceline topped out at 2. But after filling out the credit card info, Hotwire said the deal was no longer available. Yet when I returned to the search, there it was. I tried three times before "giving up" and going with the two star. (This was a last minute trip, with my mother deciding she wanted to go along to, so I was under deadline to get a reservation.)

It was after getting the answer, I realized HOTWIRE links Visalia, my destination, with Tulare. So I was an extra drive to and from my destination and the AAA price is $3 cheaper.

1 room(s) @ $76.00 per night x 1 night(s) $76.00

Taxes, recovery charges, and fees $16.11

Total $92.11

AAA rate:

1 night (1 Room): USD 81.00

Taxes: USD 8.10

Total: USD 89.10

I just did a dope slap!! The Visalia Holiday Inn gives a rate of $69.50 with the Entertainment Card. And with no fees, it comes to $76 a night.

The Visalia Holiday Inn gets high reviews and was 6 minutes closer to my destination in Hanford.

Live and learn. :)
