Congrats on your win, however I must note that the Hilton in Quebec City treated me poorly as a priceline guest, even though I was paying over $80 per night for my stay. They tried to charge me extra for having my girlfriend with me, claiming the priceline rates are single occupancy. They also refused to give me a room with a single king size or queen size bed. They gave us two double beds. Very poor treatment but indicative of the quebecois culture which is graceful and polite in many ways but less customer service oriented than the rest of Canada.
Sorry, it was on 06/20/07 for one night.

Taxes/service charges came out to about $44
Hotel was listed as 3 star Condo

I was able to figure out the name of the resort by looking at the vacation packages section. The amenities listing was almost identical except they had something like in-room coffeemaker added as well.
Here are the hotel details:

This is a really beautiful area and it is adjacent to a boat rental marina. I actually have been here before, to rent a kayak from their marina, when I was in Ft Myers last time.

Hotel says their walk-in rate today was $139.
Buyer beware: the hotel is NOT offering complimentary breakfast, and the "Resort" designation is a stretch. Hotel looks like a motel and while the room is decent, it is more on par with a 2 star, not 2.5... for a 2.5 star I expect quality along the lines of Courtyard Marriott, Fairfield Inn, Hampton Inn, etc.. The beds in this hotel are more like what you'd get at a Days Inn.
