I booked a hotel room on 3-9-2013 thru Kayak.com, Showed up at the hotel at 10pm after a long and tiring day a theme parks, clerk says they are booked solid and he remembers speaking to a kayak rep earlier that day about me, they told him they would call me and reschedule (which they did not). So I call Kayak.com they say they are very sorry and will check into the situation and call me back. Its now 10:30pm receive call back they are going to refund my money in full and great news they found the last hotel available in my area if I want to book it, it will cost me double what I've already spent. I tell her that I do not have any more money. And she says she is very very sorry but there is nothing they can do. After going back and forth for a bit she agrees to contact a manager, its now 11:15pm. I wait on hold for 15 minutes she gets back on the line and say the manager is busy with other call and she left a message for them to call me back shortly I ask how long she say within 10-20 minutes. I waited till 12:30am them called them, spoke to another rep he pulled up my account and said let me see if there is a manager available, on hold i go 30 minutes and i finally hang up.  I have no more money for a hotel a car full a family and I cant keep my eyes open to drive home a 3 1/2 hrs drive. Bottom line they put my family in danger.

you put your family in this situation. Did you request late checkin and tell them it would be 10 PM when you showed up at the hotel? Even if you had made the reservation with the hotel directly and not requested late checkin the hotel still would have canceled your room and rented it to someone who was there. You should have checked in at the motel and then gone to the theme park. Kayak.com went above and beyond by offering the refund. Next time think about your family first and then think about the fun.
