Skipper didn't save time/money
Skipper didn't save time/money. It was quicker for me to contact hotels directly. I figured I'd try it out expecting that it would save me time and money. I put in requests for three hotels: a small, boutique local hotel; a larger chain (W hotel) and a luxury hotel (Loews). I received a quote back only from the small boutique hotel, while the other hotels through Skipper told me they couldn't accommodate my group. I decided to contact the hotels myself. The small, boutique hotel gave me the same rate as Skipper gave me. The two larger hotels told me they could accommodate my group and both gave me rates. I decided it was not worth it to go through a third party to book my hotel- I easily did it myself! Save your time and don't use Skipper.
