It might seem like a rookie mistake, but it's one that's all too easy to make—especially when taking long, international flights that get you in at the crack of dawn. Before you book a stay, double and triple check your dates as most properties will charge in full for any extra nights you've booked—no matter how much you beg for an exception.

We all know that last-minute booking often comes at a price, but did you know there's risk in booking too early, too? While there's no exact best time to book, you should try to keep seasonality in mind and make sure you check rates a few times before booking as they can drop even within a day or two.

It's easy to get swept up when you find a great rate, but don't let that solely determine where you end up staying. Take a step back and consider the location, on-site amenities, and whether or not it includes convenient extras like breakfast or an airport shuttle. Often, it's worth paying more for all the above.

If you book through a third-party site, you can often make note of special requests be it for a rollaway bed, extra towels, or a quiet room that's nowhere near the elevator or ice machine. Read the fine print, though, and you'll see that these requests are never guaranteed. Rather than waiting to see what happens when you show up at the hotel, call ahead and see if arrangements can be made.

So you were hoping for an ocean-view king and you ended up in a first-floor double near the elevators. While this might have happened no matter what, it wouldn't have hurt to ask the front desk for a better room upon check-in. While you have to be realistic in your request—you likely won't make off with a top-floor suite if you booked a budget-friendly twin room—you can often finagle a view or higher floor if you're nice and have no expectations.

No matter how confident you are of a hotel's address, it's always a good idea to do a quick search on Google Maps just to make sure. Many hotels will tack "city center" onto the end of their name or mention how they're "within walking distance of the beach," which sounds great until you get there and realize you're more than 45 minutes from either.

Travel is expensive, so why not earn a few dollars back with a travel rewards credit card? While perks vary card to card, you can often earn double or triple the points on travel-related purchases, enjoy waived foreign transaction fees, and get free access to thousands of airport lounges. Beyond the perks, many hotels also place a pre-authorized hold of $50 to $200 on your card to ensure you can cover incidentals like mini bar snacks or cocktails at the lobby bar. While these deposits should be cleared from your card within 24 hours after checking out, it can often take longer and in the meantime, you could be out a good chunk of change should you use a debit card.

So you used your credit card to book your hotel in Spain, but you didn't realize the rate was in euros. What now? While some banks will automatically convert to dollars using the market conversion rate, others can charge a hefty foreign currency fee. For this reason, it's always best to make sure your search is set to your own currency.

Hotel loyalty programs are often free to join, so there's no reason not to—especially if you're a repeat customer of a specific brand like Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott, or Wyndham. While perks are different program to program, members can earn points to use on free hotel stays, flights, cruises, and more. Plus, being a member almost always guarantees a better room assignment and extras like free in-room Wi-Fi or complimentary breakfast.
