nitad Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Can you identify this hotel? I'm afraid because this is a big football weekend and all the hotels have jumped up their prices so I just want to make sure that I'm not missing something. I want to be downtown. Thanks for any help. The rate that is coming up on the Hotwire Hot Rate Hotel is 95.00 per night. Here are the listed amenities: Amenities Boutique hotel Business center Fitness center Internet access Pet friendly Restaurant(s) Accessibility Accessible for hearing impaired Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility 95% recommended Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 4 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: Pet Friendly Boutique Fitness Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> if this is what you're seeing, best guess here would be the Omni William Penn Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment

thereuare Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 The amenity set above is for a 4* Downtown hotel priced at $95/nite?? I'm not seeing anything like that when searching HOTWIRE for your dates... are yo usearching for more than one room or something other than the default 2adults/0children? Alternately you could go for this 4* Downtown hotel (confirm your dates on the landing page) for $99/nite with: Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities ==> best guess here is also the Omni William Penn Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

(or are the dates different than what you're searching for) If the amenities that you posted above were thru HOTWIRE you're not going to see the complete amenity set unless you use the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com and click the GREEN 'See All Amenities' link next to the offer... are you searching as indicated thru the BiddingHelper.com and clicking the green 'See All Amenities' button? Do you want what is believed to be the Omni? If so, why not just take the PRICELINE EXPRESS offer i have linked above... it's $2 more than the HOTWIRE hotel (on an all-in basis) and it's by far the least expensive 4* hotel offered for these dates. If this offer disappears and all other things remain equal, you're then going to be looking at paying nearly $300/nite for a 4* hotel for this nite... and should our guess of the hotel be wrong, you're still getting at hotel that is far less than anything else for these dates and (thru PRICELINE EXPRESS) are assured it's good quality based upon the 9.0+ user review rating.

nitad Posted June 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Yes, I agree with you. I guess I am just curious about the hotel here. No worries. Now my husband just wants to stay Saturday if we can get a decent rate. So I am going to bid for Saturday through your PRICELINE link. Not sure if I can get even half off. Pricing certainly jumps over 300.00 for the same hotels on Saturday night. I will start a thread if I win a bid there. Thanks so much for your help. Link to comment

If you don't win a hotel for these dates then 'close' this thread indicating that you canceled the trip (or whatever you do end up doing for this trip) If you do win something (either thru PRICELINE or HOTWIRE) then use the 'ADD REPLY and REPORT WIN' button on the top right corner of the board to edit the topic title to reflect your win and to provide the details of your win... the entire thread will (if necessary) be moved to the correct section of the board. If you really want to make this trip i would tell your husband that you have a great rate for Friday nite and that you're doubtful you will get anything for Saturday nite, as that is the way it looks to me at the moment.

nitad Posted June 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Well, I blew it. I waited too long and lost that great price of 99.00 per night on PRICELINE EXPRESS. That deal went up to 134.00. I should have taken your advice right away! So I started bidding at 80.00. Went through almost every zone raising it 2.00-3.00 per bid before they accepted my bid of 125.00. I saved a little, I will be in town for the Pitt vs. Penn State game, it will be a great time. All's good! I really like the Omni William Penn. It's a great hotel! Thanks so much for your help. I used the PRICELINE links here on the site. The amenities were listed as: Pet Friendly Non-Smoking Gym Restaurant Handicap Accessible Business Center Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 Congratulations on your success! While not the lowest you had seen this property for these dates, still a very nice deal for this nite and glad that you're pleased with the results. Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your purchase. Enjoy your stay.
