That's the reason why on our site http://en.reserver.it we prefer not to allow online reservations for last minutes: in fact we prefer manage these kinds of reservations with a double check, calling directly the hotel for an option.

Personally I'm not fond that much of Venere; booked hotels in Italy through them a couple of times; the price and the quality didn't match at all. A friend recommended me the <a href="http://horse21.net/" rel="nofollow">horse21.net</a> service which I really liked - you can judge on a hotel by its "popularity" (attendance degree).
