Hotel owner and WHW CEO Bret Wirta reminds everybody traveling this summer, they get the same price by booking direct with his hotels. Wirta says that he agrees with the American Hotel and Lodging Association when they say that, ‘the hotel industry continues to put our guests first to ensure they get what they want and need out of their reservation. Unfortunately, new research from AHLA suggests that online booking scams and fraudulent and misleading travel websites continue to mislead and confuse consumers. That’s why AHLA is encouraging consumers to Avoid Shady Deals and Have a Sunny Stay by searching smarter for their hotel stays.”
