Don_ww Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 95% recommended, free parking, internet access, indoor pool, Fitness Center, Business Center, etc. Hotel location: Doubletree Boston/Bedford Glen Hotel, 44 Middlesex Turnpike, Bedford, MA 01730 Showed a regular price of $120 on hotmail, but hotel shows price as $109/nt. Earlier this morning I was showing a "secret hot rate" of $68, but got an error getting it. Retried after lunch, came in at $70. I wanted to stay a couple more days, but price jumped to over $100/day. I will try "add to your stay" later. Note, I did not try this area with priceline, but did try other areas about equal distance from Boston, e.g. Waltham and Newton/Needham from $70 to $85 for 3.5* and had no luck. I thought I might get the 4* Waltham Westin, as they have a special for $89/nt Thursday to Sunday. But the rooms were sold out this weekend for $89, but they had rooms for $99/nt. Was tempted, but I hate to pay to park.(I start and end at Betterbidding, when I can). Link to comment

Don_ww Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Here is the full list of amenities I see: Free Parking, Indoor pool(s), Smoke Free Rooms, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Internet access, Tennis Nearby. Note: When I checked in, they told me the internet was free, it is, (on it right now). The "tennis nearby" is just across the parking lot, clearly visible from my window. Link to comment
yellowdog Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Thanx for the follow-up! I believe there were likely more amenities then what you have posted above as HOT.WIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links. For future searches/bookings you can do the following to ensure you're seeing the complete list: 1) use the EASY VIEW tab of our Bidding.Helper and click the green 'See All Amenities' button OR 2) search HOT.WIRE (or use the HOT.WIRE tab at Bidding.Helper) and... · click the offer · on the next page click the BOOK NOW link · in the TRIP SUMMARY box click the 'See more' link at the end of the amenities We hope you had a nice stay. Yellowdog. Please use the PRICELINE and hot.wire links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Link to comment
