They disguise the site URL to look like the direct hotel website in Google search. It wasn't until I saw the $150+ "tax and recovery fee" on a $214 reservation that I realized something was off. By then I'd already booked. I canceled the reservation, but the site isn't clear on whether or not they refund the exorbitant fees. For comparison, booking directly on Marriott had $34 in government taxes and fees. Bookonline.com is crazy.
Tip for consumers:
Don't. Just don't. Book anywhere else - directly with the hotel, Priceline, Booking.com, Truvago, Kayak - anywhere else.

It was a good experience. Santiago was friendly. He added extra notes for handicap room and late arrival.

The hotel was completely misrepresented and the process for a refund is less than likely. You guys suck

I told the person on the line that I was driving on the hwy heading to the hotel and he was pressuring me to input my card number before I could get there and repeated that I was only 5 minutes away but he kept saying that I had to pay over the phone when I needed to stay for the night and had mi family onboard of my truck and also made me drive for 45 minutes by the time I got there their were no rooms available so Iam demanding a full refund of my 174 dlls besides wasting my time and gasoline money

Christina was very well spoken and mannered and, though we hit a small snag with entering a CC number, it all ended up just fine.

A complete fiasco. We said we had a pet and paid an additional charge for it. The hotel turned us away. They don't allow pets.
