When searching for hotels I found a website that has a certain hotel at a lower cost than the standard booking sites and offers cancellation until a few days prior to the stay. After googling, I'm uncertain if it is a legit site. Does anyone have any information about www.bookearlyandsavetravel.com?

I can't swear to the site's legitimacy, but I ran two searches on it for two hotels with two stays I recently booked or tried to book. One stay is not available (I can only book due to my status, so I was curious if it would appear; it did not). The other stay shows up at $20 a night higher. I am eligible for a Hilton for Business and another discount for that stay, so wondered if the site would show a lower rate or not. All of this is to say, I suspect the site is just another third party OTA that is fine. But chances are you could find the same or better discount via AAA, AARP, or a widely available business code you are likely eligible for, and then earn the direct booking credit. That's my take at least, but I don't imagine it's a fake or anything from what I can tell...

OH, for Pete's sake--scratch all that! Expedia put on a new outfit! Basically, T&Cs show that Travelscape LLC or Vacationspot, SL is part of Expedia. In fact, this is not even new. Here's an old SEC archive.

Whats there to lose, book and pay with a credit card, ask the hotel after booking that you have a confirmed booking, then ask again a few days before your stay and if you don't, file a chargeback
