As stated in previous comments, my fees/taxes were almost $100 more than what I could have booked through the hotel. On top of that the hotel allows for cancellations and Bookonline.com does not. There was no breakdown of fees, so when I saw the bill later I thought there must be an error because the taxes and fees were over 75% of what my nightly rate was! The booking was $144/night and the taxes/fees were $108/night! Through Marriot directly the taxes/fees would have been $13/night at most. I've tried getting in touch with customer service several times, but keep getting the same robot generic response back. The only reason I'm writing a review here (First review I've written ever maybe) is because I've seen them respond to some of the poor reviews given here. I'd like to recover my almost $800 extra I spent on this 8 day booking. DON'T BOOK HERE. There are plenty of better options.

My husband made a reservation months ago, but had issues when he arrived. They only had $1,200 a night suites available. While my husband was at registration trying to reserve a cheaper room, I called and spoke with Vanessa. She was able to book him a reservation for 3 nights at the Cosmopolitan. My hubby was able to walk over and check in immediately. After a long flight, finding a reasonably priced room was a relief.
I mistakenly booked a hotel room on this website and paid in full at the time of booking. When I checked out of the hotel 3 nights later I was told that my payment had not been received and that I needed to pay for my stay with another credit card. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
Booked room with host Edgar. Davenport Grand was full on dates I need. Edgar was able to register and book room for me at another of their locations. Great job. Thanks.

Having to book a room late is already annoying, but she seemed very happy to help and was willing to make sure I was happy with my accommodations, even if it was just for a single night. Would hope most people in this feild would be as courteous as her

Booking my reservation online was a little difficult. They did not let me know exactly how much was going to be charged to my credit card at the end of my stay. They only told me what would be charged that day. I had to ask a lot of questions before they told me, I have to pay a resort fee every day plus property taxes was not included in my total. I also had a hard time understanding her accent. I canceled the reservation.
Now the person that I canceled my reservation with was so sweet she totally understood she was very kind. She also had an accent, but I could understand her.
