Visit Tallahassee does not manage or service any hotel transactions made through VisitTallahassee.com and does not receive, or have access to, any credit card information submitted in the hotel transaction. VisitTallahassee makes no representation as to the accuracy or reliability of the hotel offers being made, or of the values represented therein.
