Can I specify where I would like my room located (preferred floor, next to a pool, etc.)?

If special requests are accepted by the lodging, a section will appear on the Reservation Form to insert such requests and submit them to the hotel. The hotel staff will do their best to accommodate special requests. We cannot guarantee that your requests will be granted because they are subject to availability.

Is the room rate per person or per night?

All rates displayed are nightly and based on double occupancy per room unless otherwise specified. Carefully review the room descriptions and rate rules to ensure the room you select can accommodate your entire party. Any extra adults or children above the rooms listed occupancy may be subject to additional charges at the property’s discretion. Some rates may require special identification. Our booking fees, taxes, and other surcharges imposed by the hotel are not included.

Canceling a Reservation:

What is the cancellation policy on my reservation?

When you are completing the Secure Lodging Reservation Form, the Cancellation Policy will be provided in red or there will be a link to read the cancellation policy. You can also view the property information page to find the cancellation policy. These policies will vary from lodging to lodging, so you must read each one carefully. In general, the standard increments are that you must cancel the room(s) by 4 or 6 PM on the arrival date, or 24, 48, or 72 hours prior to your specified arrival; however, these are just general guidelines and the specific policy of the property will prevail. If you cancel before the deadline, generally you will not be charged a penalty by the lodging provider. Canceling after the stated period will result in a cancellation penalty fee from the lodging provider. Some reservations are non-refundable and cannot be canceled after booking.

If the cancellation is outside of the time allotted, you may be charged for one night’s stay including tax recovery charges and service fees. Please read the specific cancellation policy provided for each property on the site and in any emails regarding your reservation. More importantly, do not hesitate to call us at 1-888-963-8986 if you are having difficulties or if you have any further questions. We are always here to assist you.

I canceled my reservation. When will I be credited?

You should see a credit on your billing statement within 30 days of requesting the credit or on your next billing cycle.
