Damn you Laterooms and your misleading prices!

Is anyone else getting a bit sick of laterooms? I get the results for the city I'm after, "Ah there's a good price" I think to myself but then when I click through to the booking page, what do I find... "A 3 night minimum stay applies on this date". Grrrrr! Shouldn't they be telling me that in the first instance instead of getting my hopes up? What really annoys me is then when I find both days either side unavailable anyway! They're not that good anyway anymore so I just won't use them but still annoying...:mad:

Is it too much effort for you to click through to the next page?

I've noticed this too.
It's a bit of a pain when you've put in X location for a 1 night stay, and you get a whole load of offers for 2/3 night stays.
I also tried that HotWire website, and that was just a pain. "you can have a hotel, we won't tell you where it is or even list the facilities or an area map, and you can find out where you're going once you've paid"
Bit of a pain when you want a hotel with certain facilities, and you have no idea if it has them

Well thanks for your er valuable time there boba but you know what... When I have 770 results... Yes, it is a bit...

Mamma - Exactly! If I want a 2-3 night stay, I'll put that in the box... I tried Hotels.com instead, Seems a bit more user friendly and the prices seem to match laterooms who don't seem to do the "late rooms" prices anymore...

Have you used Quidco with Hotels.com?

I used it recently via Quidco and should have £180 cashback (Room cost was £1,575).
Funny old thing it didn't track.

I'm hapy with the Quidco process (cookies etc) and it was all done correctly.
Raised a claim obviously and have forwarded more info to Quidco, just waiting for a reply now.
