Everyone needs a vacation. Time to relax and refresh yourself is absolutely necessary if your work life is to be productive and fulfilling. Unfortunately, travel comes at a high financial cost. Working around the expenses is possible, but itโ€™s frustrating and can cause you tremendous stress when you should be unwinding.

Whatโ€™s more, hotels high prices are on their own enough to drain most of your budget, and the quality of the cheap options are just not worth it. So you end up taking shorter trips, or traveling far less often than you need.

Fortunately, there is now a simple solution available.

The cost of a cancelled trip

More frustrating than not being able to travel, is having a trip cancelled at the last minute. You finally have the opportunity you deserve, when something important comes up – a family affair, or a business crisis – and your long-awaited vacation falls apart.

And it does not affect this holiday alone. Postponing is just not an option, because of most hotelsโ€™ notorious โ€œno-refundโ€ policies.
Hotels do not give refunds, because cancellations happen on a major scale. Every day in the U.S. alone, 220 000 hotel reservations are cancelled! Cancellations which severely affect hotels even though they donโ€™t give refunds. High amounts of revenue they would’ve garnered from your stay is lost.

This is unlikely to make you feel any more positive about the situation, but an intuitive solution has made it possible to use cancelled bookings to your advantage.

Hotel rooms need never stand empty

Since so many hotel rooms are cancelled daily, thereโ€™s a good chance that your idea of perfect accommodation is being wasted. So is someone elseโ€™s money. This mutual frustration actually leads to a great match. The owner of the booking should be more than willing to sell their reservation at a discounted price – at a hotel that is nonetheless of excellent quality.

Taking advantage of this situation has never been easy. You have to somehow find your match, and then rely on the accuracy of their description and the security in providing them credit card or other details.

It is therefore refreshing that a company called Roomer has found a way to make trading these hotel rooms safe and easy.

The concept of a hotel-marketplace

Roomer marketplace, provides a platform for desperate sellers to find people to buy their reservations. Using a simple form, sellers can list their bookings at the price they think is fair. (Roomer recommends they give at least a 50% discount).

You can either browse through the marketplace, looking for the best deals around the world, or you can specifically search in the location you prefer. If you think you wonโ€™t find anything, you’ll be surprised.

Part of Roomerโ€™s appeal is that they’re doing a service for the hotels as well. As mentioned, hotels lose money from their rooms being left empty. Therefore, many hotels have partnered with Roomer, and offer exclusive deals on the Roomer’s website

It sounds like a lot of work to make this trade happen, but all of that goes on behind the scenes. Instead of you having to call to alter the booking details, or to arrange payment between you and the seller, Roomer takes care of everything.

They even guarantee that the room described is exactly what you’ll be getting. Thereโ€™ll be no misleading details, as everything is verified through their automated authentication system.

And payment is also simple and safe. Buyers and sellers never exchange details.
