Hi All,

 

Using the PRICELINE links from this website, a couple weeks ago, I was bidding on a 3.5* in the Chicago area. I didn't want to pay more than $200, yet kept striking out in the downtown areas (The Loop - Grant Park and North Michigan Ave - River North). Even when I added 3*, I still struck out. I grew increasingly frustrated and needed to move on, and hastily, I added Skokie on the 3* (assuming it was one of the areas that only has 2*).  So I won and got Skokie, which I didn't want.  And it was the Holiday Inn Chicago North Shore Skokie.  The reviews are horrible, and it was not what I wanted.

 

For weeks, I beat myself up because I shouldn't have been bidding while in a distracted state. Anyway sorry for the long story, but the bottom line is this - I have 2 ROOMS this weekend in Skokie that I have paid for and I will NOT be using.

 

Any other ideas for ways that at least SOMEONE can use these rooms? Is there any way to donate these rooms?

 

I'd hate to pay for these and have them sit empty.  Thanks for any suggestions.

Sorry to hear of your bidding error.

Unfortunately rooms are non-refundable/non-cancelable (technically this includes name changes as well so it's questionable just how willing the hotel would be in allowing you to add/change the name on the reservation). Have you tried contacting PRICELINE (immediately after the purchase would have been better than a few days before arrival) to see if they would be willing to work with you in any way?

Can you please add the dates of your stay in a reply to this thread so that we can add this information to the topic title and enable this purchase to appear in the Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins (it may just help somebody in the future who is looking to stay in this area)

Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.
