When I arrived at the hotel, they told me they had sold my room and could only offer me a standard small room, despite the fact that I pre-paid in full for the room with Orbitz. When I tried to talk to the hotel manager, he told me that he could not discuss this with me because Orbitz had paid for the room on their credit card and all inquires had to come from them. When I called Orbitz, they told me that I had to talk to the manager to get a room I was satisfied with. When I told them what the manager said, they hung up on me! After the trip, I tried to get a refund of the difference between the regular room I got and the suite I ordered. At first they told me that it was my responsibility to get the money back from the hotel (despite the fact that they paid for the room with their credit card, not my credit card), then kept telling me they could not do anything more for me since the trip was over. I have NEVER used them since then and ALWAYS reserve rooms directly with the hotel. Oh, and Travelocity is no better with their service. My advice...skip all these guys and go direct.

Cheap Tickets.com does not keep it's word and has stalled a long time and still has not refunded money paid to them for a flight that did not exist. Beware of these two companies.
