EDIT: How to use hotwire somewhat effectively - Cross reference the dates/prices with the other hotels you see listed next to the "mystery" price. Be sure to adjust the price. Hotwire always sells their rooms slightly cheaper than on the actual hotel site.

Interesting. For some reason I always had it in my head that those hotel/flight search sites always overcharged.

not really.

Hotel charges say $180/night
Hotwire charges you $160/night
Hotel gets paid $130/night from Hotwire

That's about how it works most of the time.

That's probably because you had a bad overall experience booking a plane ticket and a hotel room one time.
