Absolutely. We use Stripe for payment processing (the same system used by Amazon and Google). Your payment information is Level 1 PCI compliant, with 256-bit SSL encryption. We never see your full card number.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before check-in. That's actually MORE flexible than most OTAs. Cancel online instantly or call us at (207) 836-3575.
Instant confirmation email within 60 seconds. Plus 5 more helpful emails: payment receipt, pre-arrival instructions (48 hrs before), check-in details (day of), during-stay tips, and post-stay thank you with review request.
You talk directly to the owner. Call Aaron at (207) 836-3575 or email stay@westbethelmotel.com. Response time <2 hours vs 24-48 hours with OTAs. We fix problems fast.

Here's what guests who booked direct have to say
"Saved $47 by booking direct vs Booking.com for our 3-night stay. Used the savings for dinner at a local restaurant. Plus, when we needed late checkout, Aaron responded in 20 minutes. You don't get that with OTAs!"
"I always used to book through Expedia because I trusted them more. Then I realized I was paying 20% extra for what? This place has the same secure payment, better cancellation policy, and actual human customer service. Never going back to OTAs."
"Family of 4, saved $83 for our weekend ski trip. That's TWO lift tickets! The booking process was just as easy as Booking.com, but without the annoying service fees. And I got a real confirmation email in 30 seconds, not 6 hours."
"Repeat guest here. Saved 18% compared to Expedia on my first booking, and now I get 10% loyalty discount on all future stays. After 5 stays, I've saved over $200 total. Why would anyone use OTAs?"
