Getaroom review: Wrong room trickery 13

This sounds very familiar to what my wife and I just went through. They booked us at the wrong Hilton hotel in San Diego. After several phone calls with wait times of up to 18 minutes and several days, we finally heard back that it was our fault and they will not return our money. THIS IS NOT A COMPANY THAT CARES ABOUT THE CUSTOMER. I can't imagine that getaroom.com has many satisified or return customers. I understand problems happen, but it's how the company handles those problems that determines success.

This company is horrendous. I was booking a room on line directly with the hotel's website, and somehow got diverted to getaroom, wound up booking with them, only to find out later on when i was on the hotel's website, the rates were 25% cheaper. I called them and they would not put me on the phone with a supervisor/manager and would not even entertain the idea of a credit. The would do nothing. Obviously not customer friendly or customer oriented, and I would never use getaroom again.

I don't know which site the original poster is using, but I had a good experience using getaroom.com. I've booked on a few occasions via the phone/call center and every customer service agent assigned to me has been more than helpful. I'm sure the company is far from perfect, but I've had far worse experiences using other hotel booking services. My friend recently booked a hotel in Vegas through getaroom and said he had no issues. I'd say it's worth a try.

I booked with Getaroom and reserved the Pear Tree Inn in Paducah and upon arriving there they said I didn't have a reservation with them. They called the Thrifty Inn and found that my room was there. I showed the reservation to the staff at the Pear Tree, showing the reservation was at their hotel, and I was still sent to the Thrifty Inn.
I stayed at the Thrifty as I had no choice. I called Getaroom after emailing them as they requested a phone call. I spoke to an agent who had me on the phone for 15 min. and said she would call the hotel and verify. She then hung up on me and I have not received a call back.
Form you own opinion about Getaway, as I have. I have emailed and called Getaroom and this gets fixed I'll happily add an update. However I have little faith so far.

Worst customer service experience ever. I called getaroom.com hotline and booked a 3 day stay at "the inn at oak plantation" Kissimmee. I repeatedly asked and verified with the call agent that I want a room with wifi and I was assured of it. Upon check-in, I found out that not only is there no wifi in rooms, the nearest public access wifi is at their "resort" 10mins walk away. At the "resort, " there are no available power points to charge my laptop. Pissed, I called getaroom hotline and the agent hung up on me just minutes into the conversation. The second time I called them up, another agent who was more patient, went with the cancellation albeit I still have to stay here for a night. I highly recommend using hotels.com than getaroom because you can see everything on-site plus the rates are close, if not the same.

Horrible! Accidentally booked the wrong day, through Kayak android application. immediately called to change the date and was met with the worst customer service ever. No help, rude, would not do anything to help. Would not refund my credit card either. Would just blame me. never use this site, do not use through Kayak, in fact don't use kayak...from now on will only ever call the hotel or go to the hotel website.

By far the worst hotel site on the web, book a smoking kind bed room at hollywood florida, then when i got there i was told that the hotel is a non smoking hotel. called the company and ask to be moved to another hotel they charged me again and promised to return the credit onto my card. They never did, i've called them 4 times and they say the same thing, it is being processed. Tomorrow I will call my bank and place a claim on them.

Booking made on-line
getaroom receive payment from American Express who confirm that they have payment

Several calls and emails via their on-line email with responses that they will call back. They do not call back. They reply by email saying they doo not have the payment.

I am going to take legal action to recover costs incurred due to their breach of contract

The most deceiving booking site EVER somehow I was sent via TripAdvisor I will NEVER EVER USE EITHER SITE AGAIN ! Geataroom is a deceiving Company ?...Awfull 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Getaroom STINKS SLEAZY COMPANY JUST LIKE IT SOUNDS 😡

Terrible site. Were NOT informed that they did not honor the hotel discount we were to receive as part of a blocked rooms for a class reunion. The customer service person I talked to to complain even admitted who ever took the reservation should have told us. But there was nothing they would do and if we canceled we would lose the whole amount. Finally took $70 off but I said that was still $200. more than what we should be paying. Since that wasn't told to us i feel THEY lied to get the extra money and they also say BEST PRICE guarantee. Also a lie. Trip advisor had the same room alot cheaper which we also didn't know until after. Wouldn't honor that either. Ripoff

Awful! They guaranteed a room with a balcony over the phone but the email confirmation they sent was for a room without a balcony. They would not change the reservation so we had to cancel and rebook through the hotel. Now they will not issue a refund even though they didn't provide the product. Never use this company to book a hotel room, they are engaging in fraud!

Most deceitful online company I've every encountered. Horrendous customer service. DO NOT use this online booking company!
