I’m a very simple lady when it comes to finding hotels: I want the cheapest rate possible. For my family reunion in Houston, I searched all the major travel engines; expedia, priceline, orbitz, travelocity and even hotel websites. Cheapo Air found me the best deal. Period.

The hotel list came up and I found a three star rated hotel for only $43 a night. I thought this was too good to be true since all the other three star hotels were pricing in the $250 and up range. I jumped on it and tried it out.

Turns out, the hotel was great. While the rest of my family paid $199/night, I only paid that much for the entire five-day trip. We stayed at the America’s Inn in Houston. It was surprisingly nice. Everything was super clean and the people who ran the hotel were great. It definitely wasn’t the Ritz, but it was everything we could possibly ask for (especially given the price).

The deal I got was amazing. In fact we are planning a trip to Venice in the Spring and I’m going to book both my hotel and flight at the same place. So excited!

Benefits: Cheapoair.com searches and returns results faster than most other sites and has much more flexibility in terms of meal and seating options than other sites. Also, I use tripmama.com and cheapoair.com almost always comes back with the cheapest flights. Customer Service is also extremely helpful.

Drawbacks: Flights tend to change with some frequency and they don’t cover smaller airlines and there’s a small booking fee.

Recommended? Definitely!
