I haven't seen many bad reviews of the site but the one review I read talked about some hidden fees that they don't reveal until the end of the process so the price isn't nearly as good as it seems up front. I have always had good luck with Agoda, but try Ctrip and Elong as well, especially in Asia. You can always double check the rates with the hotel directly. Often they will match the rate from the travel site so they don't have to pay the commissions. It is a better deal for them and peace of mind for you.

My fiancee & I just used Agoda recently. We even had to change the dates because our interview schedule was changed. I called their customer service and they changed the dates with no problem and we were given a quick refund. So we'll be using them again when we get our hotel for the interview. Good luck to you.

I am not comfortable using hotel reservation that try to find you cheaper hotel but it isn't really.

You can go to tripadvisor.com and search nearest hotels where you wanted to stay. You can view the estimated rates and reviews of the hotel. Most of the hotels have their own website where you can make reservations. For me its safe, and you can call them directly if you need to make changes.
