Below we have some of the actual screenshots from our hotel search from both sites.
Keep in mind, Priceline does not post the total cost of the hotel. At Priceline, you have to click the rate, enter
your first & last name, and click again to see the Total Cost for the hotel . (Yes. It is both annoying and time-
consuming)
BestTravelCoupon.com instantly posts the TOTAL COST for the hotel. Of course, we compared the total cost
between both sites.

taxes and fees for the hotel. They post the Total Cost instantly. The Total Cost on Priceline can be found in the
“Total Charges” row on the screenshot. In this screenshot, Priceline is $182.
