Everyone and their brother, it seems, has a site that will help you get hotels for cheaper these days. The problem with all of those sites is it requires that YOU do all the work, and who wants to do that for their vacation?Enter "Rentalo," the website that lets you get vacation rentals for less -- less work, and less money.
Here's how Rentalo works: Go to their site, enter the city or area you're going to, and you'll get listings of the hotel, bed & breakfast, and other lodging options. Pick the dates of travel and kind of lodging, just like any other site, and you'll narrow the listings down to the ones that meet your criteria. From there, look at the ones you like, and if you think you want to know more or stay there, check the "click to inquire" box.
Still with me? See? It's easy.
Now here's where it gets different and better: you'll inquire by asking those hotels and motels to make YOU an offer to stay there -- and they know that the others are competing, too.
So you'll get lots of offers out of one click, and you'll get what the hotel believes is a competitive price and you can select the best deal from that.
How much easier could it be? Not much -- I suppose the people from the hotel could come out to your house and do the clicking for you, but that seems excessive, doesn't it?
What's nice, too, is it's not limited to just hotels -- you can find villas and apartments and bed and breakfasts, so whatever kind of vacation you want, you'll find a rental for it there.
I did a search there just now, looking for some stuff in the San Francisco area to take Sweetie on a little trip, and the hotels that came back were not only great, the offers were way more affordable than I'd thought, and cost less than any other sites I've seen. I ended up picking out this:
Which is way better than some junky motel, and not as expensive as I'd worried it was. You should check out the view, too -- but you won't be able to, because I'm gonna rent it.
