AaronJB Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Betterbidding does benefit when PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links are used to make a purchase (hotels, cars, packages or other offerings from either service) and using the links is greatly appreciated. :)The Alexandria listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but my guess would be a new amenity set for the Westin.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Stephent Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 This hotel was amazing. Great location, super comfortable and clean. I hired a car ($12/day) and got FREE street parking when I attended the Alexandria visitors bureau. Marvellous" Link to comment

Stephent Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hi there,I can't believe I forgot to mention the hotel I won. It was the Westin Alexandria. Super modern, super comfy. Though I utilized the free street parking, I also found the location very close to the Metro. Quite handy for downtown Washington!Of course I used the HOTWIRE link on Betterbidding,com to make this purchase. Link to comment
