Hotwire.com Hotwire Expedia travel agent hotel booking Dallas, Texas

Hotwire falsely advertised rates and the rating of a Hotel that I booked.  Since you don’t see the name of the Hotel until AFTER booking, you are forced to accept paying for a substandard hotel with no recourse.   After booking I was told about *mandatory* charges that were not disclosed before booking.  The “4 star” Hotel they booked me in turned out to be a 2 star Hotel.  Their ratings don’t match their customers’ ratings.  I guess their ratings are based on how much money Hotwire can make that week.  What a rip off.  I called them immediately after booking but they refused to cancel the reservation.  DO NOT use hotwire.  They should be sued for what they do but I guess it is easy to get away with a million dollar scam if you only do it $100 at a time.   Hotwire is full of hot air!  AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!
