4 times out of 5 I find the price on booking.com to be 20% ~ 40% cheaper than the price on the place’s own website. Even when I call them for a price like booking.com (because I hate giving Booking my money), the place says the best price is on Booking and I should book there.

I compared booking.com to Airbnb. Booking.com is mostly cheaper. You can get cheaper if you are at reception desk and talk to owner. It means place to stay is not part of a chain. Or you are extending your stay at reception.
