Dont use priceline for hotels because if you have a problem they will not refund your money and won't help you I recently booked thru Priceline, they lied online, the Hotel I stayed was not even a 1 star and they said it was more, I had to book at another hotel and lost all my money, priceline will not refund you and will not help you, they promise they will get back to you and that never happens, this company advertises false information online, when they tell you the hotel is a 3 star, it's because it's really one or none, bad service and would not recommend anyone to use this company.

Difference between priceline.com and hotels.com?..Hotel age limit..? I already know that for some hotels you have to be 21+ to get a room and for others you can be 18+ to get a room. My question is, what is the difference between Priceline.com and Hotels.com?...I want to book a vacation package on Priceline cause it is cheaper but it says you have to be 21+ in order to get the package. Then when I go on to Hotels.com and book a vacation package, they say you can be 18+ to get the package. (?????) I don't get that. Same hotel but maybe different flight times and stuff, but still same hotel. I even called the hotel and they say you have to be 21+ to get a room but on Hotels.com it said you can be 18+ to get the room.....I'm so confuse...SOMEONE HELP ME!! :'(
