My guess would be the Inn of Chicago, which is a fairly basic 3*, which used to be a Best Western prior to renovation. Personally, I'd recommend trying to bid for a 3.5* or 4* for $79 via PRICELINE to see if either of those bids were accepted before accepting the Inn of Chicago. Not to say that this is a "bad" hotel, but I'd try other options before accepting it.
Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchase. |

You can add bidding results to this thread and if you are successful, this thread can be moved over to the PRICELINE area.

Are you seeing this hotel when you search on the service itself?

No I don't. I have never responded to the e-mails before and have always gone through
your website to purchase my rooms |

I don't know about the details of the email, but I'm guessing this may be for different dates (?) as if it isn't showing on these dates on the service, it would not be available.

Through PRICELINE (through your link) I obtained a winning bid of $79 and the hotel was the 3* Holiday Inn Merchandise Mart
Thanks for the assistance |
