I've heard lots of people say that they book a room at an okay hotel, then watch expedia like a hawk to see if they can get an on-site hotel. Well, we REALLY want to stay on-site and would be HEART-BROKEN if we couldn't. I've been quoted 180.00 by people over the phone, but don't want to pay it if I can get better at Expedia.
My question, is there anything to stop me from calling and reserving the room at 180.00 a night (which I could live with, she also said later, if AP prices come up, I could get those as well), then waiting until 1-2 weeks before I leave, finding a cheaper rate from Expedia, and then canceling the other reservation? I know you can cancel up to 72 hours before you arrive, but I just wanted to make sure that since they would both be in my name, paid for by my credit card, etc. there was no clause saying that I could not cancel my reservation for another deal on expedia. Pleae let me know if you have any thoughts.
